Am I entitled to half the rent if we both own 50/50 of property?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
It depends upon how title is held, but you are not likely entitled to rent unless you have an agreement to be paid by the renters.

Does the youngest son get any real estate after death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Depends on whether there is a will and how the property is divided. If no will and no spouse, all children should share equally.

Can rights to an inheritance be relinquished after the fact?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Tell them to take out the estate language or to clarify that Person X will not participate in any wrongful death proceeds paid to the estate. Generally, a wrongful death claim is a claim of the estate, not the children. Therefore, when the claim is paid, if it is, then the estate will get it. If you don't want the proceeds, then you have to give up your rights to that portion of the estate.
