Re: Co-Owner of a House
There is not enough information to answer your question. If all of the brothers were to inherit the house by Mom's Last Will, then clearly your boyfriend has an interest in the house and can take action to put his name on title. You need to retain counsel to address the actual facts of the case and advise you/him about his rights.
Re: Co-Owner of a House
Unfortunately your post is not clear on a number of points. You state that a house was left to your boyfriend. How? By Last Will and Testament? Was the house in his mother's name only, or in some kind of joint tenancy?
Then you state that the house is in the brother's name. How did that happen?
Your boyfriend needs to take immediate (and I mean immediate) action unless he wants to waive any interest. We offer free initial consultations to see what can be done, get all questions by the client as well as the attorney answered, and see what financial arrangements need to be made. Do not delay.
