Is she entitled to her husband inheritance now that he passed away?

[t74]

I would caution you about the importance of selecting a competent ESTATE attorney. Over the years In dealing with my husband's and my estate plan and setting my parents and in-laws estates I have dealt with 9 attorneys; the majority of whom I would never use again. They have ranged from dishonest and incompetent to fantastic. If you or your father has a trusted financial advisor or attorney with another specialty, ask him/her for a recommendation.

Your situation does not make much sense.

Your FATHER needs a lawyer for Estate Planning and to Evict his son's ex wife.

Not knowing the particulars of the situation, and the Father's desires, that advice may be inappropriate.

While the Father has always had the option to evict people from property that he owns, there may be reasons for him to allow his daughter-in-law to live there. For example, there may be grandchildren involved, or the Father may just feel sorry for his daughter-in-law.

We all agree though, that with the passing of his son, the Father should rewrite his will to make sure that it is clarified to reflect his actual wishes.
