Every state has its own laws regarding inheritance. The answer depends on many factors such as whether the son was married or whether he left children, whether the children are minors, whether he left a Will, etc. Generally, if a person who is not married dies his estate goes to his parents after his debts have been paid unless he left a valid Will that names someone else.

When someone dies without a will the state laws of intestacy provide for the distribution of their property. Generally, if your parent is deceased you would inherit your parent's share of your grandparent's estate. If your parent is not deceased then you have no right to a share of your grandparent's estate. If your grandparent left a will and the will is allowed you have no other right to their estate.

If your mother owns the property as joint tenants with the right of survivorship with that other person then she cannot leave her interest in the property to you. If that tenancy was not specifically recited in the will when she received her inheritance then she inherited as a tenant in common and can leave her half interest in the property to you by will. If she dies intestate her interest will pass to her heirs at law according to your state laws.

If you don't understand the legal reason for the distribution of your mother's estate you should ask the attorney who is handling the estate to expplain it to you. If you still don't understand or disagree then you should consult another attorney, explain the situation and ask for a second legal opinion. The second attorney can review the law that affects your situation and confirm that the distribution is being done according to the law in your state.
