Legal Question in Intellectual Property in California
Life Insurance Policy
My recently deceased husband was owner and beneficiary of a policy for a family member. Am I under California law now the owner and beneficiary for that policy. Monthly installment payments have been taken out of our joint bank account for all these many years I am sure he believed it was in both our names.

If you were married to him after the policy was taken out, maybe. You had better get a lawyer before the insurance company pays the other person.

Please note that this is really not an intellectual property question as IP law covers patents, copyrights and trademarks. If you are not getting the kind of responses you expected, you may wish to repost your question in a more appropriate law category.
