Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Massachusetts

My fiances son convinces his mother to put him on her deed to home to help her run

the house as house is large and expensive to run. Bonnie, my fiance puts son on deed thinking the deed would be 50-50 between the two of them. Once son was on

deed. He somehow became sole owner, and evicted his mother from her home and had the police called on her once trying to get personal things from home. She is still responsible for the mortgage to a home she can't enter. How can Bonnie get her son removed from the property and get the house back without too much expense from pocket.

Something obviously went terribly wrong. My guess is that your fiance did not hire an attorney to represent her in the transfer of title, or for the eviction. You should speak with an attorney now to confirm that he is indeed sole owner of the home. Your fiance may have transferred the home to him as the result of fraud. Please feel free to contact my office if you would like to schedule a consultation.

Your fiancee should retain an attorney to determine if her son got her to transfer sole title to him by fraud. Good Luck!
