My sister-in-law passed away and she named "all living children" as her beneficiary. She had 2 living children. Her husband passed away and she remarried. As a result of the second marriage she gained 2 step-children. Upon her passing the 2 step-children listed themselves as children on the staement of living children. The insurance company sent checks to the 2 living children and 2 step-children. The step-children were not blood related or adopted. It is my opinion the step-children were not entitled to any of the death benefit yet the insurance company will not make the 2 living children whole. What is our recourse?
