[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It may be there just wasn't a will. When someone dies without a will, whatever assets whether money or house or anything else is left, it automatically goes to the spouse unless they specifically have separate property or bank accounts where the other spouse's name isn't on it. Dad should have made a will if he wanted to make sure that all the kids were taken care of.[/quote] This isn’t accurate. Laws vary by state. This is why trusts and estates lawyers exist. It gets complicated. In FL for example, if you die intestate and spouse is not on the deed, property passes to the children, while the spouse has a living will, which allows spouse to stay in the home until death. Kids can’t sell step-mother’s home out from under her, and she doesn’t own the asset. [/quote]
