Partnership with Brothers

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida

My brother and I opened a restaurant a year and a half ago. We are doing well. He wants to get married to a girl that no one likes. Is there anyway that I can make sure that if something happens to him I do not have to be parnters with her?

Only if your partnership agreement gives you first right to purchase his share if he doesn't want it or won't own it any longer. These clauses are fairly common so shouldn't be too controversial within the family.
