If your mother did not have the mental capacity to understand what she was doing when she executed the deeds, then the transfer of property can be set aside. In court, the burden would be on you to prove that she did not have this capacity. If she did have the capacity to understand what she was doing, then what's done is done. You should speak with a real estate attorney.
