If my father signs something in writing for a quit claim deed will this stop my sister from recording hers?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Actually a real property question, and potentially very complicated. Short answer, if you recorded first then father doesn't have anything to deed to anybody, so sister is out. However, if her deed was signed first and given to her, and she failed to record, she might be able to change this by suing you.

What are my rights to a property if there is no formal document from my grandfathers will?

Answered by attorney Brian Chew
Estate Planning lawyer at OC Wills and Trust Attorneys
Unfortunately without a living trust owning the properties owned by your grandfather, your Mother will not be able to sell or distribute the properties until she is officially appointed as the executor by a probate court. It is too late for a trust to be created. She should probably consult with an attorney to have the probate opened. Once she is appointed executor she can sell the properties but if there are other owners she may would have to go to to court again in order to force the sale.

What can we do if we found out a family member was altering other members wills?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Your question is very complex and fact driven. I suggest that you meet with an attorney to address the issues involved with the specific facts related to each Will and the options available and costs associated with pursuing the same. You would certainly benefit from a consultation to address the specifics of the situations that you are concerned about.
