You do not have to but it is a good idea as it will make it easier for your siblings should something happen to you.

What should we do if we can’t find our mother’s will?

Randall C. Romei
Answered by attorney Randall C. Romei (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Ashcraft & Ashcraft, Ltd.
If there is no will then your mother's assets are distributed in accord with the statute on descent and distribution. If the deceased had no spouse but did have children when she died all of her estate is evenly divided amongst her children, your mother's house included. A probate will have to be opened to transfer the house to the new owners. If the house was titled in joint tenancy then it would transfer directly to the surviving joint tenant without probate.

If my husband dies and the will he made before we met leaves his estate to his daughter am I entitled to anything we acquired?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
Yes. If you are not mentioned in his will, and it pre-dates your marriage, you would get all of the community property AND a third of his separate property. So, if something was bought with money earned during your marriage, it's community property, and you get it. If it was purchased with money he owned prior to your marriage, then it probably is his separate property, and you get a third. This assumes you have no written agreement, and no title documents are relevant. With your car, how title is held probably is important. That is even more true with your home: What does the deed say? For example, if you and he hold it "as husband and wife as community property with right of survivorship", then it comes to you. Similarly, joint bank accounts would be yours too.
