Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York

If you were on the deed, you probably are entitled to at least one-half, or possibly, even the whole house.

It's important to see the deed. The deed can be held in one of three ways: a tenancy in common, a joint tenancy with right of survivorship, or a tenancy by the entirety. You almost certainly are at least a 50% owner, and you may well now be the sole owner. If you'd like, you may e-mail me at [email protected] -- if you provide your name, your late wife's name, and the address of the property, I will quickly look at the deed and will be able to advise you as to your rights.

The deed would provide needed information. We have substantial experience handling these types of cases, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
