Q: Ohio Probate My mom, uncle and aunt inherited my Grandma's house. My uncle died without a will, no kids or wife.
So my mom and aunt inherited his share of the house and his belongings like a new car and other things of value. The house nor his car had not yet been sold when my mom died in June without a will. So my question are me and my siblings legally entitled to her share of the house and of my uncles property? Also my aunt is now on hospice what happend when she dies
A: Yes, you and your siblings could be entitled to something of your mother's estate, depending on whether she has a surviving spouse. Use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local probate attorney to review the situation and advise you how best to proceed to sort out the estates for both your uncle and your mother, and your aunt in hospice.
