What should I do when my step brother sells a piece of land that is still in my father's name?

Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
First, find out if your father authorized him to do it. Normally, your father's signature would be needed on the deed to pass title. On the other hand, if your brother has a durable power of attorney for financial issues or is the conservator for your father, then your brother has the authority. The next question is how is he using the money. If he is using it for the care of your father, you don't do anything. If he is using the money for his own benefit, you complain to the court.

You should discuss the details with an attorney, but generally no. A trustee does not only assets but is only in administering them in a fiduciary capacity. Therefore his tax problems would affect any here he might personally be entitled to, but not affect other beneficiaries. If this pertains to Michigan you are welcome to call Musilli Brennan Associates PLLC with details and to engage the firm.
