Sherman Hemsley estate battle rages on
Posted by

I know that many people think that estate lawsuits only happen when there is plenty of money at stake. That just isn't the case. If you think you're likely safe from your kids (or previously unknown relatives who come out of the woodwork) suing each other and your estate because you don't have much to fight over, you could be wrong. I'm attaching a link to a story about Sherman Hemsley, best known to TV-watchers as George Jefferson, whose estate is worth only $50,000. His body is still in deep freeze months after his death while his survivors battle it out. Click here to read the article by Charles Ticker in www.advocatedaily.com.
