Welp, after all the crap I've said about the lawyers on this board, this is the first place I'm coming for help. Apologies to everyone I've offended.
My father passed away two years ago and the house was in his and his second wife's name. Last summer she went into the nursing home with dementia and her sister got a Guardianship over her financial interests last month. Finally.
She wants to sell the house, which is the right thing to do. My three sisters (no pics) and I are on board with that. Seems to me it would be cut and dried. Widow owns the house outright, Guardian has authority. Sell it.
Widow's sister has been working with a lawyer who specializes in Olds. I don't know him, but he seems competent. Widow forwarded me an email exchange she's having with him where he says, I am hoping we can get the kids to sign waivers so you can sell the property without it going through a “Land Sale” with the Court. A land sale is expensive and have to go through lots of hoops with the Court.
I'll be totally cool with that once I know what it is and what it means. Can I get some help here? I know your usual $3.50/hr fees apply.

This is a modest house. $300k, tops. There aren't enough assets to fight over.
