Dear Mr. Premack: How do I go about keeping my home now that my husband has passed? His father’s brother is trying to bully me into signing papers, and is telling me I don’t have to pay taxes anymore. He wants me to pay rent to him.

The first thing that you must do is investigate the true status of your husband’s interest in this house. You should hire a qualified attorney to assist
