Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

My aunt left a will and left me the executor and also her home. I have been paying on the taxes and now I want to get it out of Jessie Bullard Estate into my name. She does have a son that is presently in the nursing home with Alzeheimers and also married. I have spoken to Legal Aid today and the lady I spoke with on today informed that since she has son I cannot get the name changed over into my name. Is this true? In her will she only left her son $1.00

If u have a will with u as Ind Ex and getting the home, you need to hire a lawyer to probate the will..unless she died more than 4 years ago in which case the will is not enforceable. Call if you would like us to see..9722984641

You should probate the will. If she mentioned (and disinherited the son) AND the will is done properly, then it should control.
