'I think my brother-in-law cheated us out of our share of the family farm'
"We thought the farm would be divided fairly when the oldest sibling died but 10 years on it has been sold and we got nothing - and a bank account has been emptied."
"John had inherited the family farm, and the other brothers - my husband especially as we lived closest - all helped him out from time to time when things were busy as John never married and had no family."
John, who died intestate ten years ago, inherited the family farm. His three brothers, including the writer's husband, assisted him regularly. Despite expectations of a fair division of the farm after John's death, it has since been sold, and the siblings have received nothing. Additionally, a bank account associated with the farm has been emptied, raising concerns about the management of the estate and the distribution of assets among the surviving brothers.
