Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
It appears your mother and father held the property in joint tenancy title, and one of the rights to that form of title, is the right of survivorship, and she would have survived to your father's share of the residence, regardless of what his will states, as the joint tenancy title is a during life document, whereas a will is an afterlife document, and therefore is not effective against a right of survivorship, as your mother survived to the title to the whole property. Thereafter, she can make out her own will, and direct the will to pass the house to whomever she wants, and no signature is required from anyone.

My mother as the only life tenant, quit deeded it to a brother who is a remainderman. Me and another brother are also remaindermen on this estate!

Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
A quitclaim deed cannot transfer title.  The only thing it can do is note that the signer quits making a claim to ownership.  That is why it is best used with disputed easements and rights of way. The owner of a life estate (your mother, since a quitclaim deed cannot transfer title) cannot do anything which would damage the rights of the remaindermen.  (Note that the situation is different if this is not a simple life estate but a general warranty deed reserving extended life estate a/k/a Lady Bird Deed.  Your mother could revoke that at any time before her death.) On your mother's death (which terminates the life estate), your brother could file a claim against her estate for "loans" for improvements -- but would have to show tbey were not gifts.   Show the actual documents to a local real estate lawyer so that she can advise you based on the facts.

I have a trust but would like to make some changes, can this be done?

Answered by attorney Dwight Edward Tompkins (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Dwight Edward Tompkins
I give new clients a free 30 minute initial consultation. If you bring me the document, I should be able to determine whether the trust is revocable or irrevocable. If it is revocable, and you are the person with that power, then you can make any changes to the trust that you want to, including amendment of the successor trustees.
