The best way is for your mom to have a Will before she dies.

Her husband will need to devise his share of the property in his Will and she will need to do the same. However, Wills can be changed at any time. The safest way would be for both of them to place the property in Trust. She will need an attorney to do this. If husband doesn't want to cooperate, she may be out of luck on his part of the property since he is on the deed.
