A resident of the U.S. is subject to the country's estate tax laws. You can leave an amount up to but not exceeding the exemption equivalent amount ($2 million in 2008, $3.5 million in 2009, unlimited in 2010, and $1 million in 2011 and thereafter) to anyone other than your spouse. You can leave an unlimited amount to a spouse who is a U.S. citizen. If your spouse is not a U.S. citizen, then the limitations indicated previously apply.

I am the only child of my father who is deceased. His mother passed away in California. She has one daughter and one step-son living. What are my rights to her estate if she had no will?
I am assuming that your grandmother does not have a spouse who is still living. In California, if a resident dies without a will or trust, then the laws of intestate succession are used to determine who will inherit the estate. If your grandmother was not married, then the estate would be divided in equal shares (if they are in the same generation) to her children. If there are no children or grandchildren living, then the estate would go to her parents. If her parents are no longer living, then the estate is distributed to the "issue of the parents." (Issue is the legal term for children, grandchildren, etc.) I am not an attorney but typically, in your situation, you would inherit one third of the estate. (Your father's portion.)

Your question involves estate planning. You need to consult with an attorney who specializes in estate planning to determine your options and the consequences, tax and otherwise, of a transfer of your property to your children.

You should get some good legal advice ASAP.
