How do I get the title of a car owned by a deceased relative?
The property (including a car) of a deceased person is called the person's "estate". If the person has left a will then the person appointed in the will to "execute" the person's wishes (as set out in the will) is responsible for passing title of the car to the person it has been left to. If there is no will then the laws of your country/state will appoint someone to administer the estate and to whom the persons estate should be distributed. If you have a valid claim on the estate you should contact this person.

In North Carolina if there is no will can the brothers of the deceased override the children's claim to the estate if witnessess swear the deceased left his entire estate to his brothers?
In North Carolina, if there is no will, the deceased's estate would generally be distributed according to intestacy laws, prioritizing spouses and then children. If witnesses claim the deceased left the estate to his brothers, this may need to be proven in court, and the court would consider evidence and applicable laws to determine the rightful heirs. Ultimately, it would depend on the specific facts and circumstances of the case.

Debtors MAY have a legitimate claim against the deceased persons. However they must file their claim against the ESTATE(s) of the deceased persons, not against any particular individual. Unless someone who is still alive co-signed a note or a loan, the creditors have no other claim on anyone, or anything, except the estate that the deceased left behind.

If an adult daughter makes a claim on a life insurance policy and another inidividual is the designated beneficiary what consideration is given to the claim by the insurance company?
Only the beneficiary has claim to the life insurance. They were put as the beneficiary for a reason. I would see if there is a will which states who gets what. Most people leave it to one person(whome they trust completely), then leave it up to that person to designate who gets what. More than likely, once the funeral is paid for as well as the debt the deceased might have left, there might be nothing left.
