What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
HAWAII, Hi my is Brad and im 21. My Mom and Dad bought a house, but my mom died(1994) before it was payed off. They where never married but there was no WILL that i know of. Everyone from my mothers side says half the house is ours(my sister and I),but it never went through probate. so this is my first question. 1. Do We own hAlf? To make things worse my dad is now maried and im assuming half of his half is his wifes now, or half of all of it if we dont own any. 2. how much does she own? My dad is currently not with her but they are still married and he tells me he will give the house to me.
3. can he WILL me the house without his wifes approval?
