Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Maryland
wills/inheritance
My mother passed away in June 2006. My mother left her house to my brother, sister and myself. My brother is the executor of the will.
I do not talk to my brother. How can I legally make him sale the house or hurry the sale? Thanks.

I would suggest that you make a letter demand on your brother and sister had advised them that you would like to sell a property. If you would like me to deal with your brother sent me an e-mail advising me what number I can content you at and what time to call you.
Re: wills/inheritance
You have to hire a lawyer to file a partition action. Normally, an executor under a will is not going to have the authority to sell the home of the person who died where that home went to the children. Basically, it's a two step process; you need to probate the will, get the house in the name of your brother, sister and yourself, THEN file a partition action seeking sale. Call a Florida probate attorney for more details.

You can ask a court to partition (split) the property between you when it is in your names.
