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.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

I assume that title to the property is in the name of the heirs, and not still in the name of the decedent. If this is true, then the only way to force the sale of the property is through a lawsuit called a "partition." If the property is still in the name of the decedent, then a probate must be opened to sell the property.
