Is this NEWS? Not enough things happening....
Very sad. All my sister’s children would get the lot from me. Can’t understand how any Aunt would deny their sister’s child.
Lack of certainty of subject matter and intention rendering the disposition void therefore the house which is legally the dead mother's falls back to the residual estate meaning it passes to the daughter.
Sure their names aren't Jarndyce and Jarndyce?
This sad story highlights why if you have children you MUST make a will and SPECIFICALLY make your intentions towards them clear. You might assume a verbal agreement will be met but in law that is simply not the case. If you want your children safeguarded do it legally properly
A young woman, having lost her own mother, shouldn't have to be taking her greedy unscrupulous aunt to court.
shock news as wealthy people argue about money
Sorry can you explain why the fact she's a student is important? Why is that the leading point of your headline?
It is very difficult to believe that a dying mum [who paid off her sister fairly] wouldn't want to ensure her young daughters are provided for and wouldn't trust their sibling to ensure this. Fingers crossed for Anabel. Hopefully there is circumstantial evidence.
Ah, what a country. The little people's wills are made public and the gutter press can come up with tawdry stories like these, whilst the Windsor's wills are sealed for 90 years to protect their privacy. What are they hiding?
Picture is st Mary's island ?
Should of been in writing, verbal won’t hold hold up in any court
greedy bugger.
Why is this on my trending? Come on Twitter, I don't want this bullshit popping up.
People should always have things written down. Verbal or alleged verbal conversations don’t mean anything!
That picture is St Mary’s Island in Kent, Kings Hill is miles away nr Maidstone 😂
Always put it in writing & make it clear where things are to go
If its not in the will, then ur outta luck Folk have become greedy in this day n age Expect nothing free, and you will live an honest life
What an unfortunate name her Aunt has
This Is A Case, That Will Be Argued In The Courts For Years To Come. I Don't Know Either Person, But This Is Very Sad. Family, Is Family🙏.
Of course the aunts name is Karen
It had to be Karen, didn’t it 😂
As sad as it is that she passed someone working for JP Morgan should know far better than to leave it like this, I was an estate planner for a decade and it has to be clear, sentiment and belief hold no weight, Annabel is shit out of luck I’m afraid
Seems the old Sam Goldwyn quote applies: 'A verbal agreement isn't worth the paper it's written on.' 😁
Everyone is blaming the aunt without even knowing that a verbal agreement actually took place which the young lady can't prove. The young lady wants to force the sale of the house and throw out her grandmother without any legal proof whatsoever. The judge will laugh at her.
Something simlar has happened to me my dad contracted allzhimers i was promised the house transfers in the will but ny brother has attempted to stop it
Why is this news? Families sue each other over wills every single day.
If her mum left it to someone other than her then there must of been a reason....
You can keep paying twitter to promote these none stories to pop up. You know Johnson's policy is disposing of your readership... Yes, yes yes. The beeb isn't reporting downingstreetparty WhoWasAtTheParty either.. but Dorries threatened them Meanwhile
Karen being Karen.
Shame what money does to people
The student can demand for more, the rights of her mother as her daughter and also as grandaughter.
