Hello,
In April of 2008, my father was killed by the police of the city for have a gun in his hand (there are many, many cases being filed for the dept. in question for excessive force; this is in Los Angeles County, California). I'd rather not like to say any more on that subject.
My question is in regards to his will he left behind. In his will he states that the entire estate goes to his brother. We(my mother and I, his only offspring) divorced my father because of his alcohol abuse, about 6 years ago. I honestly did not want to do this, but because my grandmother(his mother) and his brother have refused to even let me know where/when the funeral was. I have decided to take legal action.
Many people have been telling me that I am entitled to money, but the percentage changes from person to person. I would just like to know if I am entitled to anything, regardless of percentage.
