My dad divorced my mom and in the divorce papers it says she gets 50 percent of his life insurance. He recently died, but she is not listed as beneficiary, But my sister and I are, along with four others. Now She is suing us for her half, is she entitled to it if it's in the divorce decree, even though shes not a beneficiary? And If she does sue us for it, can we not settle for that amount with her, or is it set in stone because it says it in the divorce papers? The only reason I want to fight her getting anything is because my dad took her off of his life insurance because he didn't want her to have anything, he hated her.
