Question

If you have been married for 28 years and your spouse dies with no will, do any children have a right to any marital property or does the spouse inherit by default?



Answer

the children inherit along with the wife, after the wife gets her "elective share." I suggest hire a lawyer to have you appointed as an administrator of his estate.



Answer

That depends on the nature and extent of the property and is very fact specific. You should speak to a local probate/estate planning attorney.
