Areas of Law / Wills and Probate

My father left his money to me and my four brothers and sisters but I was seriously ill at the time, and they altered the will so that I now only receive the interest on the money and cannot touch the capital. My brothers and sisters are no longer alive, do I have a right to this money?

Your brothers and sisters won’t have been able to alter your father’s will without going to court. It sounds more likely that your father set up a trust in his will to look after your money for you. You need to find a copy of the will and get advice from a solicitor about the terms of the trust and who has the right to appoint new trustees. You should be able to obtain a copy of the will from the Probate Registry.
