What to do if my brother paid funeral expenses out of insurance money that he was solebeneficiaryof but nowinsists thatmy sister and I owe him 1/3 of the expenses?
My mother had Will and my sister is the administrator. Everything was to be split 3 ways. Her house was turned over with a beneficiary deed to the 3 of us. The insurance my mom paid for was more than enough to pay for funeral costs. My brother was beneficiary of the policy. Since, my mom wanted everything shared as stated in the Will, do we owe my brother money for the funeral?
