My parents pass away a few years ago. My dad died first and left a will and my mom had done a will when she passed away. My dad left the house in the will to be sold and decided between all us kids. Before it sold it had gone through a complete please major repairs due to water damage but the insurance company paid for all of it. My questions 1- who's will is the binding will and there were 2 sisters that sold the house and never told any of the rest of us and kept the money. What can be done about it. Thank you

How many years ago is a few years. There is a statute of limitations, meaning that any action to recover the funds has to be brought within a specific time limit, or it is barred. Further, a will must be probated within 3 years of the date of death, or the heirs can only get an order determining the heirs, and the property divided equally.
