What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
My mother died recently, and her estate is very small (less than $30,000). My mother had three children, one passed away in 1997. We have been told by the company that is buying her mobile home that the proceeds need only be split between the two surviving children. We have also been told that since the since the brother who died had three children, his portion (1/3) should be divided between his children. We want to do what is legally required, but can't seem to find out what that actually is. Any help from the forum would be most appreciated.
