What are the legal rights of a spouse who just discovered his/her recently deceased mate never divorced the first spouse?

Answered by attorney Christopher Emmanuel Benjamin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Barrister Firm, P.A.
You may still be the personal representative of the Estate so long as you meet the statutory requirements. However, our marriage is void and you are not considered an heir for purposes of inheritance (i.e. distribution of assets). It would also appear that the former spouse may be entitled to a portion of the decedent's Estate.

How do I buy my mother's house after she died without a will?

Eric James Smith
Answered by attorney Eric James Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
Speak to a local attorney or title company. If you are in Texas, you may still need to do a determination of heirship, or you may be able to get by by having 2 uninterested persons familiar with the estate swear out affidavits of heirship and file those affidavits in the county deed records. One of those processes will transfer title from your mother to her heirs. Then the heirs must execute deeds transferring their interest in the property to you. When you are the sole owner of the property, the credit union will be able to renegotiate the mortgage with you, but they are not required to do so.
