What rights do I have to my life partners estate? How?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Unmarried partners should ALWAYS have wills. The basic answer is no, you have no rights in his estate. The things that you bought jointly, unless there is a written instrument saying they are held as joint tenants with right of survivorship, are owned as tenants in common: you own half, and your partner's estate owns half. His family can't just come in and get things; if they try, call the cops. That's called "stealing." They can open probate, and then the personal representative can demand your partner's share of the things you and (s)he owned. Rather than go down that road, you might want to offer to deliver to them those things which are family heirlooms, or which have personal significance for his or her siblings or parents.

The minimum time is a little over six months. Usually it's longer and if the estate is very large it can take well over a year.

What can I do if my girlfriend wants me to put her name on the property deed?

If your girlfriend is paying part of the expenses to build the house, she is entitled to be included on the deed. However, if you are covering all the cost yourself, the deed should be solely in your name. Some options: you can marry and she can inherit the house from you; you can give her a life estate in the house; you can contract with her to have her pay for some or all of the cost of the house over time (land contract); you can leave the house to her in your will.
