How do I get my share of the land?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark Schaefer (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Elder Law Office of Mark Schaefer PC
Yes, you file a petition for partition of the land if there is enough land to physically divide it into eight parcels. If the land is not large enough to do that, you can petition for equitable partition of the land which would result in the land being sold and the proceeds divided among the eight owners. Both of these are Superior Court actions that will be filed in the county where the land is located. You will need to hire an attorney to handle this for you, but if you go the equitable partition route, the attorney can be paid from the proceeds of the sale so that all heirs contribute.

Is the untaken portion of a deceased persons RMD subject to his estate or does it belong to the spouse as his beneficiary?

If the spouse files a joint return for the year of death, it can be included n the 1040 form. It could also be attributed to the estate.

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.
