At 18. I was in a foster home. But had money coming to me if my mom died and she did she was cremated i never got her belongings or had the chance to go to any celebration for her death, no ashes where recovered??. In 1988 the judge in vegas who represent my mother years ago when he was a Lawyer. Found a Lawyer for me. He was a judge at time i was contacted. later I was. Told to sign a buy out or i would recieve nothing!!! I was so intemidated. . If I fought. For my rights Lawyer said i could lose,! but realized years later in court papers it was all going to me any way ! I tried getting a Lawyer from Vegas no one would help me. This was in 1989 i tried through the years and ask about my grandmother. They wouldnt tell me she died 1997. I felt they wanted to hide her death and asked me where i was!!! I settled a buy out for a small amount really wanted grandmothers belongings & grandfathers. Pictures and any belongings they had. Never had the chance. To get them. Im sure nothing. Can be done. It was a bad lesson learned.
