I was fleeing domestic violence and was working with the police department and their social worker. They brought me emergency order of protection paperwork. The abuser found out about my engagement with law enforcement and called off work that following Monday morning. He went to the courthouse and filed an emergency protection order against me, naming our one-year-old daughter in his petition. This forced me and my two sons, aged 9 and 3, to leave our home immediately. I wasn’t able to take my daughter with me. I need help.

Is a warranty deed or transfer on death deed preferable? The property owner is in hospice. He gave POA and everything to my mom, but he progressed faster than expected, and my mom procrastinated. He has no family, no children, and no spouse. His brother passed away over 15 years ago. He told my mom to take the house, but she never finalized it, and now he’s incapacitated. We want to transfer the house, but we're trying to find the best way to do so. Also, there’s no will in place.

My mother passed away in Dec. 2023. She had repeatedly stated that neither of my brothers were to receive anything after her death. I tried to speak with both of them about a policy from my grandmother (who passed a month before my mother), where I was listed as a 50% beneficiary. When I brought it up, they both said they had nothing to discuss and didn’t want to hear it. Do I still need to list them as beneficiaries?
