heirs rights

The other two children are now the heirs, 50/50, and the Estate will go through Probate. If you'd like to challenge Probate, you should consult with an Estate Planning Attorney.

To Annie,

Is your mothers name on the title to the property? Did she make any will leaving the property to you and your siblings? If she hasnt left any will, you will have to file an affidavit of heirship with the probate court, claiming your interest in the share of the property owed by your mother before her death. You ought to consult an attorney for further assistance regarding this matter.

sounds ugly. If your mother didn't leave a will this could get pretty sticky - I'm aboutt o go through the probate process myself but the rules may not be the same where I am.

yes i agree with guest thats the right way you can take you part,

i am to recieve a home left in a will one member has the right to stay in the home until he/she expires .who do i request to let me view the will? and do i have the right to have a copy?

if i am left land in a will do i have to wait till will is read to get the deed to the land left to me?

Hi,

You cannot have clear ownership of the land until the will is probated. Once the probate is complete and the estate is divided and distributed as per the instructions given in the will, you will get full ownership of the property. But you can get a copy of the will, if you want. In that case, you will have to talk to the executor of the will.

my mother died without a will i am her only child,she came from a family that has several acres of land in tennessee can i have the right to her portion of the land

Hi rufus,

You can file an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office and get your mother's share of the property transferred in your name.

Thanks
