| Try posting this on the "wills and probate" forum. YOu should get a lot of help there. I don't know the specifics, but I do know the surviving spouse has quite a few rights and is entitled to a share of "community" property between the two. The children cannot take anything that has her name on it such as car, joint checking account, insurance, IRA, etc. The estate account needs to be set up. She does not have to let them take anything or even enter her house. |
