Inheritakce negotiation

My mother had a daughter before her marriage to my dad (I’m the only full blood sibling of the marriage). My half sister has put forward that she wants 50% of my parents assests. She didn’t have the best childhood. My folks want us to negotiate together what we want in their wills before they draw them up. Currently She has a much higher amount of capital than me. I feel awkward trying to negotiate for more with my parents as we get along.

Your parents are being very unfair. It is THEIR estate to leave as THEY wish, not to ask you to negotiate and decide!!

How does your father feel about this?
I would present the split as 50/50 of your moms portion with you inheriting 100% of your fathers. Which ends up more as 25/75%
But it’s very mean for your parents to burden you with this.
Did she grow up in the same household?

It’s hard to get to the bottom of it all
as my mum dictates

Did your dad raise her?
