Q: If a widow has only one daughter - and when she passes away, would her inheritance be given only to her or would it be divided between the deceased's daughter and the deceased's brother. If so, does this still happen if her brother is very wealthy in comparison to her daughter.
A: If there are no other heirs besides the deceased's daughter and the deceased's brother, the daughter will receive half the estate and the remainder half will be given to the brother irrespective of whether he is wealthy or not.
