Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Utah
Property left to sibling but not put in will.
Four years ago my Father died. All the siblings understood and agreed that a small property that was in my Fathers name was to go to me the oldest. Each of them did a general Affidavit that was notarized. I just went in today 8/28/08, to have the property changed into my name but was told it has to go to court. What should I do now?

You are required to open and file probate on your father's estate. Title is still in the name of your father, and a court order is required to transfer title into your name. You may call for a free consultation.
