Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Ohio

My mothers home

My mother owned a home an had it paid for. She owned it for 37 years. she married a man about for years ago. When she died she had a verbal agreement with her husband that he could live in the house until he died and then she wanted the home to come back to her children. There was quite a few people even his children that new this to be the case. Now my step father passed (3 days ago) and His son and girlfriend live at my moms house and plan on keeping it. Does me and my sibblings have any recorse that we can take legally?
