What do I do if my mother has passed without signing over a power of attorney?

Answered by attorney Richard Keyes (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Probate Law Center Richard J. Keyes, PC
A power of attorney is void upon death. Now that she is deceased, if she had assets in her name only without any non-probate beneficiary designation, you need to see an attorney.

How do turn over our share of land to our brother?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
It is difficult to answer a question like this without more complete information about the estate, and how the land will transfer in the first place. If your mother passed in July of 2013, you should still have time to "disclaim" your share of the land that might do what you want, but more information about the family is needed. You could simply deed your portion to your brother, but first you need to make sure that you are properly in title to the land, and this approach might involve a need at least to file a gift tax return. Honestly, it's land it must have enough value that it's worth hiring a lawyer to make sure things are done correctly.

You will need to get the Court to Appoint you as Executor (if you are named in his Will as Executor) or Administrator (if he did not leave a Will).
