family members

The financial risks of lending to family members are obvious, but there are legal risks as well.

Siblings who jointly inherit the family home don't always see eye to eye on what should be done.

If you feel that the inheritance was divided unfairly between you and your siblings, your options for getting a better deal depend on the exact terms of the will.

If you came into a large sum of money, you must think carefully before you commit to co-signing a loan for a family member.

You collected the benefit from your mom's life insurance policy, but now your uncle is demanding that you use that money to settle the credit card balance in your mom's estate. It's time to set things straight with him.

If you are eagerly anticipating an inheritance from a loved one's will, it's best to be aware of the methodical timeline of the probate process.
