Question

What right, if any, do I have if my husband leaves me out of his will? Also, as a life tenant do I need to sign a specific document to refinance?



Answer

You would normally be entitled to a 1/3 elective share of his estate if you were left out of the will, absebt any agreement signed by you wherein you waived that right. As far as the refi, as a life tenant, it is likely that the mortgage company wil require you to sign some of the documents as you do have an interest in the property.
