I agree with counsel above. See an attorney that specializes in foreclosure and litigation against banks and have them look over your paperwork.

Speak to an attorney to see if you have a claim of quiet title by adverse possession. Bring proof of your payments of property taxes.

You need to refinance the reverse mortgage. This will involve an escrow. Do this asap before your mother gets too much older or more time passes...

This is not an adverse possession claim. You are a titled owner, albeit only one half.

FInd out who's paying the taxes. That's the owner.

You could also check the county records to see if the driveway is an easement recorded against both properties.

If this is a partition case, you receive a larger portion based on what you put in. Even if you are settling with your family out of court you...

You do not need your brother's consent to quit claim your portion to another party.

My firm does this on a straight hourly basis without charging a percentage of the recovery. Wherever you decide to go, make sure they charge you...

You should be able to sign separately. Your brother may be able to go to the U.S. Embassy which I believe has a notary service for U.S. citizens...
