My uncle raised us like his own, though we weren’t formally adopted. He made me the nominee for his bank and other accounts. Sadly, he passed away without a will. His cousins are now claiming his property, but there are no other direct heirs. How can I legally claim what he intended for me?

You can try to claim the property based on the nomination for the bank and other accounts, as it signifies your uncle’s intention. However, his cousins, being his legal heirs in the absence of a will, may contest this. You should consult a lawyer to explore your legal options and strategize a claim based on the specifics of your situation and applicable inheritance laws.
