I agree with attorney Roth. Your brother's only claim may be that of a tenant's. He may also have certain rights as either a named beneficiary under your mother's will, or as a beneficiary under the laws of intestacy. If you would like to discuss your situation in greater detail, please feel free to contact my office.
