If I leave my estate to my wife, does it have to go to probate?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
Generally no, but if you have property in your name alone she may have to work with the courts to get it transferred into her name. I recommend meeting with an estate planning attorney to discuss your wishes.

How do I know if mom has a will or has not?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
The presence or absence of a Will is not the key issue, here. It sounds like a Will would have done the same thing as Michigan intestate law, in the absence of a Will. The bigger issue is the deed. Your sister could not have "done a quit claim." Only your mother could execute a quit claim deed. If your sister signed a deed acting under the POA, then it would not be appropriate. If that is your situation, then the deed can likely be overturned. It sounds like your sister is not going to agree to this on her own. You will need an attorney to assist you with this.
