There is no such thing as squatters rights. I would first contact the police and explain the circumstances and ask if they will help remove him as a trespasser.
The problem you may have is the mistake you made in not transferring the property. You will have to prove to the police that you are the administrator of your mother's estate and/or heir to the property. If the police won't help you remove him, then you will first have to establish your right to control of the property. This could mean probating your mother's estate or transferring the property. I'm not sure whether you want to go for an eviction here, because that would seem to legitimize his tenancy. You should be taking the position that he had no right to move in and especially not change the locks. What I fear is that he will gut the home while you pursue legal action. |
