Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Pennsylvania

Re: Marriagae

First,get him to transfer the house into both your names before you spend any money. I he wont do that, get him to enter into a contract to make a will leaving the house to you. Follow up with a will doing that. If he wont do that either, if he dies without a will, you may have a claim against the house for your share of his estate. If he has a will and dies, he can leave the house to someone other than you, but he cannot cut you out of the will completely. Get some written acknowledgment of the money you invest in the house. This is a complicated issue, you should hire a lawyer. There are also ramifications if you divorce and the property is still in his name alone.
