Depends on the nature of the lease, the locale of the apartment and whether your brother was living in the apartment or not when he "took over the lease." It could also depend on whether the landlord ever took rent from your brother with the knowledge that he took over the lease.
Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can e-mail me for more information about low cost face-to-face, on-line, or a telephone consultation with a lawyer in our office.
