Re: claim against and estate
Yes. Heirs can file claims and creditors can file claims. Whether those claims will stand up to scrutiny is another matter. You say your mother left her home to you and your dad; did she do this via her will? Was her 3rd husband your father? I am confused about the relationships here. It is critical that the exact nature of one's relation to another be determined, so call me or another lawyer and discuss with him/her.
Best of luck,
