Legal Question


My Step Brothers Father wrote in his will that he had no wife and no children and left his cousin as the executor. Now that my brother has been located and the estate is on hold because he is contesting it on the grounds he's the only biological child Will he be entitled to any of his father's assets? Will any family member who served as a witness to the will be excluded from profiting from his inheritance on the basis they could have coersed him? The Cousin is the person in question who is the executor.
