Short answer

Exclusion as an unworthy heir requires a statutory ground and facts established by a court. Family conflict, infrequent visits or personal resentment do not automatically remove inheritance rights.

Practical example

Deliberately obstructing the testator’s final wishes may be relevant, but evidence of the conduct, purpose and consequences is needed.

What to do

Keep letters, court decisions and other evidence. Identify who has standing or an interest in the claim and whether property was already received.

Points to consider

If unworthiness is established after acceptance, repayment or return must also be considered. Assess the legal classification of the conduct first.
