If mom put my brother on the deed to her property does this give his wife any claim to the property in the event of mom's death or a divorce?

Depends on how she did it. If she merely added him as a joint tenant on the property, and he paid nothing for this, then it is his separate property.

Is it legal to close a joint bank account of three brothers’ if one of them died?

The account would not be part of a trust, since it is joint. With a joint account, any owner can access the funds or withdraw them. That is one of the reasons why using joint accounts is not a good idea.

Is it true that a child out of wedlock would not get any inheritance?

Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
Being born out of wedlock does not affect your inheritance rights. If you can prove your relationship, then you are entitled the same as any other heir. You can, however, be excluded as a beneficiary of a Will, whether born out of wedlock or not. No child is entitled to an inheritance. If the parent wishes to leave everything to a non-relative or even a charity, he or she can freely do so.
