Find out the name of the insurance company that is handling this policy from the VA, so you can send a letter and a certified copy of the custody papers to the insurance company to let them know about this matter. The insurance company may tell you they are going to pay the mother anyway, OR they may decide to file an interpleader action to let the courts decide who gets the money. keith345@hotmail.com (Probate Researcher)
