Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas

Right to home of my deceased mother

My mother passed away in Jan 2006. My stepfather advised us that mothers will gave all of their assets to him. Now, he is asking my three sisters and I to sign over our rights to the home, so he can have it in his name. Stating he could take it to court, but it would cost him $1000.00. I have never been in this situation and since my stepdad told us everything was left to him, we had no idea we had rights to the home.

Re: Right to home of my deceased mother

Something is not right about that situation. Tell your stepfather to probate the will if he has one. Don't sign anything (either one of you).
