In Fl if a grandmother dies does her grandchild get anything or does everythng go to the only child?
Best Answer:
If there is a will, it supersedes anything. If not, then it go to the oldest child
If she had a will, it would go to whoever she chose in the will. If she didn't, it would progress to the next of kin, which would be her only child. The grandchild would get nil unless given something in the will.
If she dies intestate it will go to subsequent of kin, if that is the only child, then so be it.
Depends on what grandmother's will has to say.
The surviving spouse and children will split the estate under the Florida laws of intestate succession, assuming there is no will that states otherwise and assuming the debts and obligation of the estate do not fully deplete the estate.
If the grandmother have a will that left something to her grandchild, she/he would get whatever the grandmother intended contained by her will. If she did not leave a will, then her next of kin, her child/children, would obtain whatever was left of the estate after paying adjectives outstanding debts, funeral costs, any applicable estate taxes, etc.
If the grandmother had a will and left the grandchild anything the grandchild would get it. If no will any assets will turn through probate and after all debts settled the direct next of kin will get what is not here.*
