Dear All,
I am working as a HR professional with an urban development company. Recently one of the employee from my company has passed away due an accident. His family members had called for his outstnading dues that time we came to know that he committed suiside due to some family issues. His wife and mother both are claming the money as nominee. We have requested both of them to take the money 50-50 but none of them is ready for this and they are blaming each other for his death. Officially we can not do anything in his family matter but not his mother is also old age and wife also has all rights to cliam for her husbands money. Can anyone please suggest me that legally what is the procedure to be done where both the parties shall get the amount 50-50 and if not then whi should actually get the money. This employee has shown his father as nominee in his bank account but his father passed away two years back and he did not changed the nominee details.
Please suggest what can be done legally by the company in such case.
