Can I sue my father's girlfriend and my uncle for dividing my father's belongings without my knowledge?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
If your father died without leaving a Will, his property would not pass to his girlfriend or to his brother. If either individual has taken items belonging to your father's estate, they could be found liable for the value of the property taken. If you believe that it would take legal action to correct the situation, you should understand that you would first need to establish your role as an heir of your father. Depending on the value of the property taken, and a whole lot of other factors, the cost of the process might just outweigh the value of the property that you're seeking.

Which home from the will should be sold first?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
It's completely up to your aunt at this point. The fact that an asset is identified in her Will today is entirely irrelevant. Your aunt's Will becomes effective when two things happen: (1) she dies, and (2) the document is admitted to probate. Before those two events occur, your aunt can do whatever she chooses to do with either piece of property.

Can my husband put his name on the deed of his brother's condo if he has a POA over his assets?

This is probably not something he should do, unless there are lots of other facts. If your husband was the only heir of his brother, it would make it a little easier to say yes. Same thing if the brother's Will says everything goes to your husband. If a court approved it. More information is needed.
