How can I buy back some family property that my mother left her 3 children. My mother had debts, 250 acres in Brantley County, including 2 houses.

Robert W. Hughes
Answered by attorney Robert W. Hughes (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert W. Hughes & Associates, P.C.
If you entered into a contract to sell real estate and completed the transaction, I am unaware of anything you can do to reverse the transaction.  Maybe the buyer will feel pity for your situation and voluntarily undo the deal.  Otherwise, if the deal is concluded, there is nothing you can do.  You could contact a legal malpractice attorney to see if there si anything you can do regarding the representation you had.

How can I account for missing items when I go to probate court to submit the will?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
First you must lodge the original Will with the clerk of the Court. With regard to filing for probate, the missing items are not included in the inventory that is filed with the court. If someone asks about them, then you will need to explain the facts and circumstances associated with the prior gifting. The court may schedule a hearing on the issue if there is an objection by an interested person to determine if the asset was appropriately gifted before death.

Will has been change by POA what can we do

Loraine M. DiSalvo
Answered by attorney Loraine M. DiSalvo
Estate Planning lawyer at Morgan & DiSalvo, P.C.
If I understand your post correctly, you are claiming that your mother, who is still alive, gave power of attorney to one of your sisters and that sister sold assets that were supposed to have been distributed to certain people under your mother's Will. If I'm understanding that correctly, then your statement that the power of attorney agent changed your mother's Will appears to be incorrect. Selling an asset that is the subject of a bequest in a living person's Will may be perfectly appropriate if the funds are needed for the person's care during her lifetime, and should not normally be viewed as a change in the person's Will. However, other aspects of your post appear to allege that your sisters are stealing from your mother. If that is the case, you may want to consult an elder law attorney who works with guardianship and conservatorship, especially contested ones. The attorney may be able to help you determine if your mother is being subjected to financial abuse, and if so, what options to protect her you may have.
