Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Colorado
MY mom just passed away SEP. 4 2009 and she had no will. Her children she has is my sister 31/2 years older than me, and me. she was in the middle of buying some land but on the deed it only had her name. She has been commonlaw married to my step dad for 19 years. My step dad and i are trying to get the land in his name then trying to get a WILL set up for him so he can give the land, etc. to my sister and me, with the exception that my wife and children and i live on the land and keeping the payments up so we can do what my mom wishes for the land. We need the right forms so the land can go to my sister and I with the exception that neather one of us can sell all or part of the land. MY mom wishes was to own the land live and die on it and to be able to give her children and grandchildren a permanant home if anybody was to be homeless. my sister just wants to sell what would be her half for her greedy self.
WE need some help on what can we do and what right forms/wills do we need??

You need to meet with a lawyer experienced in these matters ASAP. There are requirements for handling your Mom's estate that must be satisfied and there are also time limits that apply.
Your step-Dad, you and your sister may all need separate counsel to avoid conflicts of interest.
