How can I guarantee that all the assets my spouse inherited from our marriage go to our child and not to the new spouse if I die first?

Estate Planning lawyer at James G. Maguire
There is not much you can do to control your ex-wife's assets. The minor child will be a forced heir until he or she reaches the age of 24, and would be entitled to a portion of her assets.

How do I go about changing the name of my legal guardian on my will?

Ian Alexis Heyman
Answered by attorney Ian Alexis Heyman (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Arnold Clifford LLC
The safest way to accomplish this is to simply rewrite the Will, naming the new guardian, and revoke all previous Wills. Make sure to have the new Will executed properly and witnessed by disinterested witnesses.

Do I have to sign anything at all?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
The asset will need to be probated. Unless you disclaim your interest by signing a disclaimer or sign a consent to alternate distribution whereby you agree he will receive your interest, you will receive interest in the home or estate, assuming there are two children. The percentage will change if there are more children.
