North Carolina here;
I’ll try to keep this short and not ramble🫠
My step father passed away 3 years ago and was legally divorced from my bio mother. (I am no contact with her) when he passed away he had what little he had… in checking, savings and life insurance… sit between myself and my 2 brothers. Both his biological sons. His name remains on the mortgage of the house he had with his ex wife… she is not able to have anything in her name that requires decent credit…etc.. anyway… what happens when she dies to the house? Can she leave it to someone even though it was still in my step dad’s name when he passed away? Or do me and my brothers have a right to my dad’s part as being his beneficiaries?
