How do I get the house in my name without having to follow the line of ancestry discordancy?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
I'd have to review the will and dates of death. Without knowing your entire story, my typical advice is: you should get a family settlement in place, probate the will and be done with it.

What is the probate process after a parent's death?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
The person named in father's will needs to petition the court to be appointed personal representative. Probate should be started in the county he called home, or where he had assets; if there is real property, there will have to be a probate in that state. Get a lawyer to help with this process. It is far less expensive to do it right from the beginning than to fix it after the fact.

Can I find out about my father's will if I don't have a copy?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
If your father left a will, it should be filed in a probate court in the county in which he resided. If your stepmother hasn't done this, you can petition the court to name you executor of the estate and/or to require her to produce the will.
