What can I do if my mother died without a will and my siblings don't want to give me anything?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
Your brother and sister could not "put their names on" your mother's assets. This had to have been done by your mother, unless something fraudulent or illegal was done. You can check the situation as far as the home is concerned, by getting a copy of the deeds to the property. That will show who was on the title and whether or not your siblings were added, (and when). Any assets that were in your mother's name alone, would need to pass through probate, unless there were beneficiaries named. If your siblings have the money and there was no probate estate, then it is because the accounts were joint or your siblings were named as beneficiaries. If that is your situation, you are going to have a severe uphill battle trying to overturn that. You will need a good lawyer to even try.

What do I do if my ex husband died suddenly without a will?

Automobiles may be handled outside of probate and you do not need a lawyer. The car belongs to the estate but his heirs can obtain the legal title by taking a death certificate and the title to any auto tag agency. You are not an heir so get the heirs to assign their right to you - that is all you need. The tag agency can help you with this. You will still have to deal with the loan.
