If the three children are by the wife, then under Missouri law, the wife gets the first $20,000 of the estate. The remaining amount of the estate is divided so that the wife gets 50% and the children get the other 50%. However, before the division of assets, the wife can file for exempt property, family allowance and homestead allowance. Contact a probate attorney for advice. If any of the three children are not by the wife, then the wife does not get the first $20,000 of the estate but everything else is the same.

I am facing eviction from my double wide mobile home due to my roomie giving me 2 bogus money orders which he falsified making me fail the due date.

Sadly, unless you had a written agreement with your roommate and unless your roommate has funds from which you can recover, even if you bring an action in small claims or justice of the peace court, you are unlikely to get anything out of him.  Your best bet may be to sell your home subject to the lien (retainer) and hope to get something out of that.

How can I remove a person's name off the deed to my house?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
When you make a deed, you are transferring an interest in real property. You can't "take a person's name off the deed." That person is an owner of the property. If your transfer was a gift, you may be able to bring an action in court (maybe a partition?) to show that you did not intend the gift and your equity in the home should not be burdened by the other person's debts. You need to get counsel of an elder law attorney.
