What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
I was married for 16 years and during those years we had 2 kids. We bought a house which we got in 1999. In 2010 I got a divorce from my wife and I left her the house. In the divorce decree it says she gets the house, well she died in 2012 but she was also married for 1 month. She never changed anything with the mortgage company and the statements still say our names. My question is I know my kids would receive the house and I was told by another lawyer that the new husband has no right to the house he can only just live there. The new husband says he does not want anything to do with the house. My question is if I get him to sign a document and get it notarized with that be sufficient if 10 years from now my kids decide to sell the house.
thanks,
