Pennsylvania - This in addition to the previously asked question, How is an estate settled?. My mother died 18 months ago, and I an executor of her estate (my father is also dead). I had an estate lawyer handle everything, all bills are paid, there are no debts, and my two brothers live in her house to keep it maintained. Her will provided us with the house and property, and we want to put the deed in our names. But when can we do this? And since the house is still in the estate, my one brother's ex-wife has sued the estate to get her arrearage on child support. Does that complicate matters as to when we can get the deed of the house and land put into our names?
