What can we do if our lawyer is telling us to waive our mother rights to our late brother's estate or get another lawyer?

Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
You don't explain why the lawyer believes this is the best course of action. Is your mother not able to handle the job? Would inheriting the assets of his estate cause her harm in some way? Which rights does he want her to waive? All I can recommend is contacting another lawyer and asking for advice.

Do we have to wait for my brother to sell my mothers home before reading the will?

Answered by attorney Donald Keith Broad (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Broad Law Firm, LLC
You should consult a probate attorney in your area. I do not believe that your brother has the ability to sell the home now, as it belongs to your mother's estate since the date of her death. In all likelihood, an estate will have to be opened, as the property will have to be transferred by a Personal Representative's Deed.

It depends on a number of factors, including how the house was titled, who died first, whether they had a will, and who their survivors are.
