      Though Mary’s stepsiblings convinced her mother to cut Mary from her will, we helped Mary secure her fair share.

      Though Mary’s stepsiblings convinced her mother to cut Mary from her will, we helped Mary secure her fair share.

      Mary

      Mary was her mother’s adoptive child. Her mother had always assured Mary that, when she passed, Mary would receive an inheritance.

      About ten years before she passed away, Mary’s mother remarried, becoming the stepmother of two adult children. Following their father’s death, the stepchildren convinced Mary’s mother to change her will and leave them her entire estate. They argued that they’d be the ones to care for Mary’s mother in her old age. Mary was, at that time, living in a different state.

      After her mother’s death, it became clear that the stepchildren had succeeded: Mary had been completely left her out of her mother’s will.

      It was then that Mary came to see us for advice. Our expert team prepared and filed the necessary documents for Mary’s case, including material and records that demonstrated the close relationship Mary shared with her mother. We submitted plane tickets (showing her regular visits to her mother), phone records, and cards exchanged on special occasions.

      We showed that Mary’s mother would not have willingly denied her daughter an inheritance. At mediation, our team successfully resolved Mary’s claim for $480,000 (20% of the estate).
