Default Help needed with 'adopted' jade plants

Hello
This is my first time in a gardening forum and i could do with some help.

I am trying to save one large, one small and two potted cuttings of the Jade Plant - Im an estate agent and one of the houses is empty and with the owners permission I was allowed to rescue the above!
Rescue - well thats what I would love to do for them.

I brought them home today - the two plants were sitting in large dishes of water and when I moved them lots of their green healthy looking leaves fell off - is this due to overwatering?
The pot that held the cuttings is bone dry.
The larger of the two plants is very lop sided and one of the smaller branches is shrivelled and bendy.
Any advice on what I should do to bring these beauties back to 'normal' and how I can save the two cuttings would be appreciated....please can you keep it simple as i am a total novice.
thanks for listening
