Do I, as eldest son have any rights of say in my mother's (aged 97) finances. My younger brother wants to sell my mother's house and his house and with the proceeds buy himself a bigger house so that she can live with him. This would probably realise something in the region of £500,000. This would mean that I would get nothing in the event of her death. Can I insist that the proceeds of her house are split equally, so that I and my two sons do not miss out. My mother is not senile, and says that these are her wishes - to sell up and live with my younger brother. She has willed it that the proceeds of her house are split equally on her death, but of course she can change her will. Can I insist that any proceeds from my mother's house are split equally between my younger brother and myself?
