What will happen to my mother's will if she remarries?

Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
The will controls, although the spouse may be entitled to up to $60,000 of the estate. Mom should get a prenup to avoid this.

Go see a lawyer. Bring all the relevant papers that you have. A lawyer will be able to figure out something of what's going on. Hard to do that from your note, for example, "trust fund" suggests there's a trust. but "guardianship" is a different animal altogether.

Can my spouse do what he wants with our marital assets without my consent?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
Any assets (property, money, business, etc.) that you hold jointly with your husband can be used by either party, even to the exclusion of the other. The exception concerns land, the sale of which will require both signatures. A person can only include those items in his or her will or trust that he or she owns or has an interest in. For example, if you and your husband own your residence as joint tenants, he can't will his share to to the children because, by law, the surviving spouse gets the property. However, if you own as tenants in common, he can bequeath his undivided share to anyone he wants.
