I was with my man for 14 years he just passed away am I entitled to anything?

Estate Planning lawyer at Douglas A. Tull, P.C. Attorney at Law
If you were not married to him - and if he did not leave a will naming you, chances are you will not be entitled to receive anything from his estate. Michigan does not recognize "common law" marriages - so you are just a "friend" and without a will, you get nothing.

Is an un-notarized will valid?

Estate Planning lawyer at Paul A. Nidich Attorney at Law
A will in Ohio does not have to be notarized. Instead, it needs to be witnessed by two individuals who sign the will in the presence of the person creating the will and in the presence of each other. If this is done, the will is valid. Note: This is not true for all states.

Do I have any rights to my step dad's estate if I have been taking care of him?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
Claims against an estate for family caregivers can be challenging to deal with, since there is rarely any sort of a formal agreement like you might find in any other creditor/debtor relationship. However, you may certainly have such a claim for reimbursement and you should seek the aid of a local probate attorney to assist you. With regard to the division of your step-father's estate, and whether or not you might be entitled to some part of it as an heir, the answer depends upon several facts that you don't really develop through your question. Again, a probate attorney can help you begin to sort through the issues and it sounds like there are many of them.
