What is the name of your state? New York
My ex-husband recently passed away and left me as the sole beneficiary (listed me by name) of his employer provided group life insurance policy. We have 2 minor children together who live with me. He remarried 3 years ago - no children by that marriage. His widow is contesting the payment of the policy to me. She claims he meant to change it to her name. The current beneficiary form is acceptable to the insurance company and was originally signed by my ex-husband in 1988. Does she stand a chance?
