A Michigan small estate affidavit is a document that allows a petitioner, known as an "affiant," to stake a claim on property from the estate of a deceased loved one, known as the "decedent." In Michigan, this process is available to estates valued at $51,000 or less. If you're the only living relative, then you can take advantage of this process so that the car can be transferred from your brother's name and into your name. You should seek out an attorney in your jurisdiction for more specific advice.
