The answer depends on many factors including:
- How the property is titled: If she and her husband owned their property (home and bank accounts) as joint tenants with the right of survivorship then the property will pass to him automatically as the Survivor.
- The laws of intestacy in her state: Any property she owned in her own name will pass according to these laws. You can check the laws in your state at the related question link provided below. Many states provide a share to adult children. Some states provide a share only to children who are not children of the surviving spouse. Some state laws pass all property to the surviving spouse.
You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate who can review your situation and explain your rights and options, if any.

Your mother and her husband were co-mortagors your mother died a year ago and he just died a few days ago He had his children sign some papers stating the house is theirs is that true?
If your mother and her husband owned the property jointly then full ownership passed to him at the time of her death. If that is so then he could leave the property to his children in his will or he could have conveyed the property to his children by deed. If there is an outstanding mortgage then it must be paid or the bank can take possession of the property. You can check the ownership of the property at the land records office where the property is located. Do an online search for "your county and state + land records" to find the location of the land records office. The staff at that office will help you to look up your mother's property and you can obtain copies of your mother's "acquisition" deed and any other deed that was recorded later. You can also check probate to see if a probate has been opened for your mother's husband. If there is a file started then you can obtain copies of those documents. If you are still unsure of the status of the property you could speak with an attorney and take the probate and deed copies with you.

Property distribution of intesteste mother having 3 children but one died having 5 children?
The five children of the deceased child would inherit the deceased child's share of the mother's estate, unless the mother's will says other. For example, if the mother's estate is to be equally divided amongst her 3 children, then one-third of the mother's estate is split amongst the five grandchildren of the deceased child.
If you your husband and his mother is on the deed to the home you live in and she died ad she did not have a will can her only daughter have any rights to your home?
You need to check the language in the deed by which the three acquired the real estate. If the property was acquired a joint tenants with the right of survivorship then your mother-in-law's interest automatically passed to the surviving owners (you and your husband) when she died. There is no need for probate. If the property was acquired as tenants in common with your mother-in-law then her next of kin would inherit her property. If your husband and his sister are the only children, and there was no will, then they would share her interest in the property equally and her estate must be probated in order for title to pass to her heirs at law.

Can an ex wife put a lien on her ex husband's inherited property from deceased mother?
Let me see if I've got this right... the ex-husband inherited property from his deceased mother. If the ex-wife has no claim to that property, she cannot put a lien on that property. Now if she were awarded a portion of that property in the settlement, and agreed to sell her portion to her husband, she could retain a lien on it until it was paid off, but I'm not getting the impression that's the case here. Basically, if it was never yours to begin with, you have absolutely no justification to try putting a lien on it.
