Possibly. You can claim a common law marriage if: 1. You were both 18+ 2. You agreed to be married (this can be inferred) 3. You held yourselves out to the public as married (i.e. he introduced you as his wife) 4. You were not already married. You would then have a claim to the community property portion of his estate. This is a fairly complicated proposition. Get legal help.
