i am going through my in-laws old papers and do not know what to keep or not keep. they have both been dead for 10 or 12 years
do i need to keep any of it and should i shred it all since none of their ids are any good or can i just throw it all away?
 
if they have been deceased for 10 or more years shred everything but read through everything first...
look for insurance policies that perhaps have not been claimed as well as bank accounts, stocks, bonds annuities that may have been overlooked. check their states web-site for inactive accounts that have been turned over to the state.
once you have double checked everything SHRED IT!
