Deed to home
My parents passed away within 6 months of each other 4 years ago. I had a lawyer and thought they had gotten the deed to their house switched into my name. It didn’t happen. We did a probate estate when my father passed. What can I do?

I am so sorry for your loss. I am assuming here that you were entitled to have the property transferred in to your name under the Probate. You may have to ask that the Estate be opened up to allow the Executor to execute an Executor's Deed transferring the property. He or she is the only person who has the power to make the transfer. Good luck.
