Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Michigan
My mother and step-father financed a house, my step-father passed away recently the bank has not removed his name from the title of the house. They indicated that they did not need to. If my mother passes do my step-fathers children have any rights to the house or it contents? Second question: He left a specific will, rights to survivor as well as lists of he wanted to go to whom. They keep harassing my mom and trying to push their way in to her home saying they have a right to be there to get things they want or "forgot were there" that are theirs. I am concerned for her safely and heath. Please advise. Thank you for your time and assistance.

If owned joint, the house belongs to her at his death. The personal items must go through probate court or negotiated. She needs a lawyer to make this go smoothly. Visit www.kliszlaw.com to discuss in detail. Tim Klisz
