Es, this is possible, and I have done this sort of think many times. On the other hand, I don't know that I this case it will avoid taxes. In fact, because daughter will get a step-up in basis if she inherits but not if she receives by gift, this may cost extra tax in the long run.

Do I have a right to my father's estate?

Answered by attorney Christine Sabio Socrates (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Christine Sabio Socrates Attorney at Law
Your Aunt should not have any right to any of your father's property unless he gave her rights in a will. She should not be able to act at all unless she is given that authority from the probate court. I would open an estate for your father so that you would have the authority to oversee all of his assets. Your brother will probably not agree to it but at least this issues would be one for the court to decide. Since your father died without a will, you and your brother would share in his estate equally.
