My mother is in a nursing home with Alzheimer's. I am her conservator. Her husband is quadriplegic with MS but mentally intact. He is also in a nursing home. All their assets have been divided between them. Stepfather contributes nothing toward her upkeep. If my mother were to become divorced or widowed she could collect on my father's retirement since he passed away recently. I would like to pursue a divorce so she could collect this money but wanted to know what would happen in the event of death. My mother has a will stating my brother and I are heirs. Does he have a right to any of her estate as a spouse if she precedes him? If he died first and she was not named in his will, would she have a right to any of his estate? Thanks whoever!
