Generally, a step-child has no inheritance rights unless they were legally adopted by the decedent. You should consult with the attorney who is handling the estate or with an attorney who specializes in probate in your particular jurisdiction if you think you may have any claim.

A mother who is competent is absolutely free to choose to convey her property to one child and that child would own the property. In many cases there is a child who helps the parent more than the other children. Children have no "right" to a living parent's property. A parent can distribute her own property during her lifetime to anyone she chooses. A different situation would arise if the parent is incompetent and taken advantage of by an unscrupulous child. In that case you should seek the advice of an attorney.
