True. One case father had 4 sons. Divided equally among 4 sons. Only 2 younger sons looked after him n his wife. Other 2 sons contributed zero. Only come over if got problems or can collect money.

haha my own true story - my late relative gave everything to 2 sons, including her own life savings. When she was ill and lying on bed, the sons that she didn't give a lot was the ones that paid for her medical bills and taking care of her.

The ones that got everything from her, were debating about stopping her life support and stop feeding her so that she died quicker! And they warned others that if she didn't die after 1 year, they will not pay anything for her medical bills.

I tell you, such people exist in the world, I saw it with my own eyes.

Below is my humble legal opinion and analysis...

1st issue - Can the mother get back her 5%?

If the mother can prove that the signature is forged, then it is very likely that she would get back her 5% of the property (equivalent of RM150k or based on the current market value which could be higher by now) plus costs.

2nd issue - Would the Court take into consideration of the 5 years of living expenses and award her with minimum compensation?

There are 2 possible scenarios that would arise in this case.

Scenario A -
If the mother's signature for the transfer of 5% is proved to be forged, it is very unlikely that the Court would take into consideration of the 5 years of living expenses spent on the mother, the full 5% would be awarded to the mother.

Scenario B -
Even if the mother fails to prove the forgery of the signature, the eldest brother's wife would be considered as a trustee for the mother's 5% fund because the eldest son said "dad asked the 5% to be transferred to his wife so they can look after mother."

So legally, the mother is still the beneficiary for her 5% inheritance.

The eldest brother's wife could only spend the 5% solely on the mother's living expenses until the monies deplete.

In such situation, the mother could raise issues like breach of trust or fiduciary duty if there is any misuse or misappropriation of her 5% inheritance.

Lastly, if you ask me whether the mother should withdraw her case and take the RM15K, I would say NO unless the eldest brother or his wife can prove that the mother's 5% is completely used up on the mother's living expenses.


On a side note:
The mother, 2nd son and daughter may challenge the validity of the Dad's Will (the clear distribution of the property suggests the existence of a Will).

They can always challenge the validity of the Will if there appears to be i.e. element of forgery (very likely by the eldest brother) or any other hanky panky tactics involved.

If the Will is successfully challenged, the distribution will then be reassessed by the Court and they would likely receive bigger portion than a mere 5% each.

You're welcome bro! I do really hope that justice would prevail in this case.

For greed and materialism that have blinded so many people, they have forgotten the true value of life.
