Location: Florida This is a little complicated and long so forgive me now. This is concerning unclaimed money from Florida. My Aunt died about 15 years ago. My daddy ( her brother)was her closest living relative. She didn’t have a will. Everything went to him. The lawyer found a bunch of stock she never collected on and he was able to collect it. Daddy died about 10 years ago and had a will which everything was left to me and my 5 siblings. I was searching unclaimed money earlier and noticed my aunt still had some stock that was unclaimed. It’s not much, almost 900.00.
Can I claim this money since my daddy died and I was in his will? My brother was the executor for daddy’s will. I doubt it would be worth getting a lawyer involved for such a small amount of money. I know I would most likely need a paper trail, birth certificates linking us, death certificates, will etc. Anything else?
Thank you for any help you can give me.

I think you can still claim the money. Just provide those necessary documents that will support your claims that you’re related to your aunt. Both death certs of your aunt and daddy, then your birth certificates, the will, anything that will support the relationship you have with them will be helpful.
