I'm from Michigan. Normally when you own a home with a spouse you want your spouse to get the whole house in case of you passing first, but when headed for divorce it is not like that. My house is worth over $400,000 and has no mortgage and it is in my name and my spouses and we are 75 years old. My question= is it possible for a lawyer to set up a will or something that will protect my half of house in the event of my passing during the separation period headed for divorce? I would like to leave my half of house to my child. Normally you cannot leave your half of house when you are a joint owner and married without approval of spouse also, so this would have to be something special for people separated or divorced.
