Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

My brother left his estate to the siblings he was raised with. His younger 3 half sisters that he met after he was an adult are contesting the will. They really haven't had anything to do with us since our father died until now. Do they have a right?

Yes. A will contest is fact and witness specific and costly. I have done many of them. Good luck.

They have a right, but they also have the burden or proving up their entitlement. It is not easy to do. Consult with someone like Mr. Slater.
