Can a wife change a husband's will after his death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Douglas A Tull (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Douglas A. Tull, P.C. Attorney at Law
No. Not under any circumstances. It was "his" will. It is not "her" will. By law in Michigan the Will is required to be deposited with the Probate Court for the county of residence of the decedent by the person possessing it, as soon as possible post death. A wife who does not like the disposition of property contained in a deceased husband's will, can "elect" to take against the Will and receive a portion of her statutory (intestate) share - as to assets which pass through probate. That election to take against the will that is provided for a surviving spouse does not exist as to assets which pass outside of probate (such as life insurance, joint bank accounts, pay on death accounts, IRA's and other qualified plans with beneficiary designations, jointly held real property).

How can I leave my house to child?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
You do not say how old the child is. If the child is a minor, she cannot hold title to property. If she is a minor, the only good option is to establish a trust. If she is not a minor, then there are other possibilities, depending on your facts. A lady bird deed might be a good option, for example.

Will this quit claim deed be valid with only the notaries' signature?

James E. Reed
Answered by attorney James E. Reed
Estate Planning lawyer at Vandervoort, Christ & Fisher, P.C.
The deed should be recordable, assuming it was signed within the last 10 years or so. Sometime early in 2000's (2002 or 2004 I believe) the requirement for witnesses on deeds was dropped.
