Can daughters claim share in property if it is not written in the will


18-Jan-2023 (In Wills / Trusts Law)
A will is executed by my grandfather stating that son and their child's should take the property mentioned. But 2 sisters also asking for a share in the property which is against the will. If we are filling to grant probate for the will they will object for sure but the will states very clearly and it's been registered. Need assistance on how to move further.

Dear Client,

no if the will does not mention your name then you have no right on the property or anything else of your grandmother. you need to file a probate case for authentication of the will.

The probate of a will means proving its genuineness in probate court. Unless otherwise provided by statute, a will must be admitted to probate before a court will allow the distribution of a decedent's property to the heirs according to its terms.
