Would judges follow a signed will over one that was not?

Answered by attorney James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Estate Planning lawyer at James Oberholtzer, Chartered
Usually, only the signed Will would be valid and paid attention to. However, if there was fraud or some other special circumstances then other documents like the unsigned Will could become important.

What can I do to prevent my mother's husband from acquiring her house?

Answered by attorney Darin Christensen (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bullivant Houser Bailey PC
If your mother and her husband agree, they can retitle the property and provide in her will or trust for it to go the way she wants. If they don't agree, your mother can sever the joint tenancy (assuming it is in joint tenancy) by deed. Her husband then would have only half ownership of the property after your mother's death.

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

Answered by attorney Irwin G. Klein (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Hein, Waters and Klein
You can execute a Codicil which is a modification/amendment to the original Will. This will accomplish your goal without having to redo your entire Will. However, a Codicil has to be executed with the same formalities as a Last Will and Testament. You should use a lawyer.
