My grandmother deeded over the family land to my dad and my aunt. My Dad wants to give his part of his land to me, my brother and sisters. He claimed that my aunt was waiting for him to die so that she would get all of the land for herself. If he does pass away before her would all of the land be hers or would his part go to his heirs?
My grandmother told my brother that she would deed him 5 acres, but then my aunt talked her out of it. My aunt took my grandmother from her home to live with her 3 hours away from any other family and my dad, brother and one sister think that she has coersed her to sign over the land. Can anything be done. Can my dad get his share of the land

Hi pbruce!
Welcome to forums!
What type of ownership does your father and aunt have? Is it a joint tenancy with right to survivorship? If it's a joint tenancy with right to survivorship, then after your father's death, the property will be inherited by your aunt. But if it's tenancy in common, then after your father's death, the property will pass on to his heirs.
No one can force your grandmother to sign a deed. If such a thing has happened, then your grandmother can file a case against your aunt and reverse the deed.
Feel free to ask if you have further queries.
