That is really rough. I assume you've aquired a laywer or some form of legal advice. I guess it would all depend on where you live. Check your laws fully, you may be intitled, as you are the legal guardian(and mother) of his only child.  |

Tyler probably isnt considered intitled. Since you werent married, thats would be the only reason why. If you were married, the money would go directly to you and Tyler, but since that inst the case, maybe you may not see a cent of that money. perhaps there is a pole that can get you across the red-tape. GOD bless, and may you get what your intitled to!! Take care, and be strong. : )~  |

First thing:Has Tyler had a paternity test(for proof in court)and are you prepared for the time and expense it will take from you to ensue this. I would try to get a 'reasonable' amount put in to trust for him, if it were me. I fought for years to get child support that was owed for my son, and even though the court awarded me $18 thousand back in the 80's I never got more that a check for twenty dollars. So if you do win the case, that doesn't nessisarily mean it will be paid. Good luck and let us know the outcome. I'll pray for you. Stonedhinge  |

You didnt say whether you had taken them to court or not... or whether you have an attorney or not... but my FIRST instinct is to tell you to get a lawyer,... FREEZE those assets.. and FIGHT like heck (legally) to get tyler what is rightfully his. It doesnt matter whether YOU and his father were married or not, the fact is, Tyler is is CLOSEST legal relative and I really believe a court would agree with that.... Good luck!!!!  |

It's really sad that Tyler has already had so many losses in his life - first his father, then his father's family. I believe that he should receive money from his father's estate. Perhaps an arrangement could be worked out where a fund was set up for his college tuition. That way, whatever problems they have with you they can't accuse you of trying to get the money for your own personal gain. Good luck and God bless. ~Chandira |
