Recently my wifes grandmother passed away and left no will. Does anyone
know what happens with all the finances? Does it automatically (like
UK?) goe to the next of kin, (3 daughters) ?

Im trying to get some ideas as I think I need to advise my wifes mother
on this matter. Im a bit worried that the other 2 sisters are going to
make a lot of problems over a rather valuable house that was left by
the mother.  And there has been some problems before between them all.
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.
The reason I ask this is because I know my mother in-law will do
nothing and possibly the other 2 sisters will work together to get
everything. 

cheers
