What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Colorado
My parents are in their mid 70s. I'm 42. I have one brother (age 45) who has been a constant burden to our family (drugs when he was a teenager, kicked out of expensive colleges, stole money from them, etc.). My parents have given him untold amounts of money for various other things, including his current house (I'm guessing they gave him $150,000 or so). They have told me in private that they aren't going to leave anything to him because they gave him so much money for his house, and they also told me that they're leaving everything else they have to me. They live close to each other in California; I live in Colorado. I'm afraid he is going to somehow trick them into changing their mind on this when they're more vulnerable than they are now, and I would like to lock this in while they're still mentally competent. I know nothing about this and could use a point in the right direction. I'm not sure what type of funds they have their money in, but could find out. Thanks.
