My grandma has been taken advantage of by my aunt and uncle before and it is happening again. They are moving in with her soon and have already convinced her to change her will. I found at grandma's house yesterday a piece of paper in my aunt's writing telling grandma to change her will to something called right of survivorship to joint property. I asked my grandma about this and she said that my aunt told her she has to do it to avoid probate. I am wondering if what it really means is that they would be entitled to her things before anyone else because they live in the house now. Her will says now that everything is to be sold off and the money split between my mom and aunt. What will the right of survivorship really do to the will? Please help me. These are bad people and I need to know how to stop them from hurting her. I really think that once the will is changed, they will kill her. Thanks.
