How can I cash the check that is payable on my grandmother's real estate?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
It's a really, really tough question. You could file a "small estate affidavit," but the banks will still give you headaches over cashing the check. With the small estate affidavit filed, you might get the nursing home to cut you a check. Otherwise, they're eventually going to have to turn over the money to Department of State Lands as unclaimed property, and you can claim it from DSL.

How do I add my children’s names to the title of my house?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
First, make sure there are no tax consequences to doing so. Then you will need to prepare and record a Quitclaim or Grant Deed.

What rights would I or my mother have to a property that my father has ownership in??

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
Your chances of any claim to the property will depend on the terms of your grandfather's will and how the property transferred to his sons. If they owned it as joint tenants, the last surviving son would own the property alone. If they were tenants in common, you and your mother would have a claim as survivors of your father, assuming he left the land to you in a will or died intestate.
