MY father died about a year ago, leaving his 広い地所 (about £5,000 in cash 加える his 50% 株 in a 所有物／資産／財産 価値（がある） about £350,000) to my mother. I understand about 行為s of variation, so my mother could change his will to leave (say) £200,000 価値（がある） of the house to me instead, but how does this work if the only item of value is the 所有物／資産／財産?

David Josiah-Lake at solicitors Fisher Meredith says: It is possible for your mother and yourself to enter into a 行為 of Family 協定/行為 of Variation to 変化させる the 条件 of the will.

I assume that it has passed through probate already. If as a result you will be （人命などを）奪う，主張するing a refund from the Inland 歳入 for 相続物件 税金 or a 減ずるd sum will be 予定 in the event of probate not yet 存在 適用するd for, a copy of the variation must be sent to the Inland 歳入 to 正当化する these （人命などを）奪う，主張するs.

The variation must 含む／封じ込める a 声明 made by all of the 関連した persons which 含むs 受益者s (your mother and yourself no 疑問) and, only if more 税金 is 予定 as a result, the executors. If the 所有物／資産／財産 is only 価値（がある） £350,000 in total, though, it would not be appropriate by 行為 of Variation to 'gift' to you, say £200,000, as this would be more than half of its value and, therefore, more than the 量 that was in your late father's 広い地所.

I am assuming that the 所有物／資産／財産 passed to your mother under the 条件 of the will and not by 権利 of survivorship (where your parents were 共同の tenants of the 所有物／資産／財産 in 公正，普通株主権). Without more （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状） it is impossible to be any more 明確な／細部 - see a probate lawyer to discuss your 選択s more fully.
