Is it possible to sue my father for caregiver Compensation? I know I would have to sue his estate, and that my mother's life insurance money he received can't be touched.
For reference I know I will be able to have at least (maybe more) 3 Dr's testify that I was my mother's full time caregiver. Along with family, my late mothers friends and ect. I was her primary caregiver for a little over 4 years.
For even more details, my father is emotionally and verbally abusive towards my mother and my sibling and I. After my mother passed away it turned 100% on me. I ended up having to pretty much leave with very little to my name. I no longer speak to him, but feel like I should be compensated for being my mom's caregiver. I didn't work for those 4 years due to all the medical issues my mom had.
It is unfortunate that you were not compensated. Many caregivers are not paid.
So sorry about your circumstances but I think it would be more productive to focus on acceptance and moving forward in your life.
Treat it as a learning experience. Perhaps check into counseling to help with learning coping skills.
I wish you well.
As far as suing for compensation, good luck! I'm sorry, but no written contract between you and your mother, no money.
