Best Answer

In order for the title to the property to pass to the heirs legally, at least one parent's estate (the last to die) must be probated. If there was no will then a member of the family must petition the court to be appointed the administrator. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate who can review the situation, determine how your parent's held title to their property and advise you on what legal proceedings must be undertaken.

In Texas, if a person dies without a will, their property will be distributed according to intestacy laws. This typically means that the property will pass to the surviving spouse and children in varying shares depending on the family situation. If the deceased had no spouse but had children, then the property would likely pass to the surviving children.


What rights to the adult children have when it comes to property purchase by the children but willed to a friend?

That will depend on the names on the property deed or registration. If we are talking about gifts of electronics or other items, there is none. If it is a piece of real property (land or house), the deed will control. If the only name on the deed is that of the deceased, the adult children have no say and the deceased can do what they wish with it.


Can an sister-in-law sue for property that was signed over to the husband who is now deceased?

If the sister-in-law is the wife of the deceased husband and the property was signed over to him before his death, then she may have an interest in it that give her a right to seek possession of it. If the sister-in-law is the sister of the husband who is now deceased, then the specifics of the property transfer and of the husband's will, among other things will determine whether she has any rights to the property. Consult a lawyer who is licensed to practice where the property is located.
