In Texas if someone dies without a will any community property owned by him and his spouce, and they do not have the same children, is to be split in half. Half for the spouce. Half for the children of the deceased.
I am the child of the deceased.
When Dad died, however, my stepmom never told me my dad died. I didn't find out until she passed six months later. She gave the I'll gotten estate to her friend.
I have an appointment with an attorney, but they're going to charge me for the consultation and I was wondering if my efforts will be futile. Is it too late to do anything?
