texas.... i am an adopted child. my adopted mother died 26 years ago. my adopted dad remarried my biological mother. my adopted mother had one biological son who signed a quit claim after her death, as did I. my biological mother had 5 other children by someone else. my adopted dad died two years ago without a will and a virbal request for me to have half the estate after his death. my mother wants to sell the house and give me my half out of it.

question: what rights do the stepchildren have to the estate? will they need to sign a quit claim in order for mother to sell? do i still have any rights since i signed a quit claim on the house?

any help will be great! :confused:
