Back in the 90 a living trust was set up for my husband and his sister. His dad died in 1993. With undo stress his dad died before he signed the quick claim deed or other documents and my husband was forced to sign his father;s name. In 2002 our only daughter died she was 23 and it caused a terrible breakdown on our part. We put a distance between everyone. We were in such pain. During this time, my husband's sister had his mother do an amendment to the trust, name her own daughter as the 2nd, leaving out my husband. Over the course of the next several years tension was worse between myself and my husband;s sister. I hated her. She moved into the house with my husband;s mother and we could never go and visit with her. His sister and her siblings stole money from his mother every month. His mother got a pension of over $2000 None of the other people in her home work. We called elder abuse they did nothing. The house was filfty because his sister is lazy and a hoarder. My husband mother had to walk through paths in her own home and live in her bedroom. In 2010 his sister through HER own attorney made her mother get a will. Thus will left my husband out entirely. Giving all to his sister and his niece. Can we fight this? The sister told lies about my husband and influenced his mother to make these changes.

He can contest it but does he have any proof he was meant to inherit anything? Without proof he will most likely not win.

Can you explain this sentence?
With undo stress his dad died before he signed the quick [quit is the correct word] claim deed or other documents and my husband was forced to sign his father;s name.

How was your husband 'forced' and what did he sign, and how did that change things?

A child has an easier time contesting a will if he isn't mentioned at all, not even to say 'I leave my son nothing' or 'I leave my son one dollar.'

But... if he forged his father's name and his sister can prove it, he's headed for a lot of trouble. It doesn't matter what his father's intentions were. He might want to reconsider.
