Alabama
My grandparents both passed away and left my father and my Uncle their property to split 50/50. The property is approximately 70 acres of land with 2 mobile homes on it. My father lived in one of these mobile homes, he passed away last year unexpectedly. We are fixing to have the reading of the WILL and my uncle who is the Executor is giving me my fathers half. My problem is that my father had a girlfriend who lived with him but they were not married. She is refusing to leave. I have been nice with her and allowed her to stay by herself in this home ever since my father died. But now since it is fixing to be mine I am wanting to get rid of the trailer and sell most of the property where the trailer sits. She is wanting the trailer and the half acre that the trailer is sitting on that has been cleared for the trailer, I guess you would call it the lot. She has never paid any rent or anything like that. My father told her that it was his land, I guess to impress her or something but it was never my fathers land. It was always my grandfathers land and in his name. What can I do to get her off my property and out of the trailer? She is unemployed and I do not think she has electricity or water if this makes any difference. She refuses to leave and says she deserves the trailer and the land because she was my fathers girlfriend and he said she could have it, but she still thinks the land and trailer are in my fathers name. I have not told her that everything is in my grandfathers name. She is claiming common law marriage, but they were only together a few years. Isn't she just a squatter if she's not paying any rent and living in my grandfathers trailer and my grandfathers land soon to be in my name?
Thank You for any advice
