If you are actually an owner, then confirm it by searching the title. You may have to sue any new grantees. Husband's alienation of marital property should be brought up in the Divorce, possibly as grounds for contempt. Someone has to pay taxes and any note debt.

Not legally as I have the deeds. Father is alive, Mother deceased. He is claiming squatters rights that he's living with my father over 2 months. Some lawyer told him can claim the property? Is this legal?
I have the deeds as my brother is an ex-con.

You probably need to get an attorney to look at everything.
The physical deeds are just pieces of paper the only thing that matters is what is recorded in the register of deeds.

recently passed away. His youngest son, my brother-in-law, will be in charge of his estate when he passes (he is 95 now). My husband and I had 1 child who is now 35. Now that my husband has passed, is my child legally entitled to receive what he would have received had he not died before his father?
answered on Jul 13, 2023
It depends on whether the will states that your FIL's estate will be divided per stirpes or per capita between his sons. Per stirpes means that your deceased husband's shares will pass to his heirs. Per capita means that your BIL will inherit everything.
Per stripes is more common.

My adopted dad signed over the house and land to my sister which was his biological child and she didn't even tell me that my dad passed away and she told family it was because she didn't want to have to go through anything with me for the home and land is there anything I can do
answered on Jun 22, 2023
If your dad was of sound mind when he did this, then there is little you can do. If it was done using a power of attorney, then the transfer is presumed void. You should probably pay for a consultation with an attorney to see what they think of this before proceeding.
Last Fall of 2022, I hired a local law firm to aid in my case of parental termination of my son's Father's rights. The other parent has been absent since 2013.

You may need to find a new attorney before getting the retainer back as that will likely be contested.
If the attorney refuses to provide a reasonable basis to keep the retainer, you may consider lawsuit in small claims or see if the bar association has a fee dispute process.

Unlicensed practice of law can constitute a criminal offense. Before attempting to assist someone else with anything legal (whether related to court or not), it's best to consult with an attorney to evaluate whether doing so would run afoul of the law.
