[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are truly interested in understanding their financial situation better so that you can provide support as needed, it seems that there are better ways of going about this than asking about a will. [/quote]

We did ask her for other financial information so that we could make plans for his care, but she wouldn't give that either.  I am just asking about the will since that is a legal document and I am not clear whether family members have any a right to request it from the spouse.

Again, I went through the death of my parent without a will and though there was very little money involved it would have been so much easier if had had that document.  We are not wishing for is death, but we are being realistic and trying to be prepared for it.[/quote]

OP, you are confused. It sounds like your parent didn't have a will. That's why things were difficult. Here, there does appear to be a will, so you don't need to worry it will be like when your parent died.

If your DH wants to know more about his father's financial situation so that he can help make arrangements for his care, that's a different thing. Perhaps he can ask his stepmother about that. It has nothing to do with the will, which is only relevant after FIL is dead, when he won't need care anymore. [/quote]
