When drafting your will you have the opportunity to provide explicit instructions for the distribution of your property. If you have two children and you devise your property to them in equal shares you may direct that if one predeceases you then her share will go to her brother. If there are grandchildren you may direct that if your son predeceases you then his share shall pass to his children. If your son has no children but is married you may direct that his share shall pass to his wife. If you don't explain your wishes in your will then statutory provisions may decide who gets what if your beneficiaries predecease you. A probate attorney has the expertise to translate your desires into a properly drafted will. You should seek the advice of a probate attorney in your area.

If my daughter dies before me what happens to the life estate I made?

I will assume that you conveyed your real property to your daughter and reserved a life estate in that property. In that case, your daughter is the owner of the property. She can leave it to someone in her will or it will pass to her heirs-at-law under the laws of intestacy in your state. Generally, if she is married with children, her husband and children will inherit the property if she has no will. You can check your state laws of intestacy at the related question link provided below. Your daughter's death will not affect your life estate. Whoever would inherit her property upon her death either by will or by intestacy would inherit it subject to your life estate.

Who have the right the husband or second sister the mom put everything in her first daughter name before she pass then the daughter died but the sister got everything that her sister inherit from mom?

I am assuming there was no will. Generally, in the United States, the estate would pass according to the laws of intestacy where the first sister lived. If the property was in her name it became part of her estate when she died. Generally, the surviving spouse and children inherit when there is no will. If there are no children then you MAY inherit a share as a sibling depending on your state laws. You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link below.

If you think you have an interest in your sister's estate you should seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in probate to discuss your options.
