What are next steps or if I will be able to keep the house if both of my parents are deceased and the house is mortgage free?

Answered by attorney Sabina Tomshinsky
Estate Planning lawyer at Home Town Law, P.A.
You really should consult with a probate attorney in your area on your next steps. If you were the only child and the home was your parents' homestead property, a petition to determine homestead status of real property would have to be filed to convey to you, if you are indeed the legal heir, title to the property. Depending on the County at issue, this may be a stand-alone proceeding or part of estate administration.

Can we go back after mother died two years ago, dad left children out of will and enforce legal separation (no will) two years?

Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
I understand you to say that first Mom died with no will. That means that all community property goes to Dad. If she had any separate property, and if you were her only child, you are entitled to half of the separate property. If she had any separate property, and was survived by two or more children, (or by one and the surviving descendants of predeceased children, then two-thirds of the separate property goes to the issue.
