Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

My father is 85 and has just met a 42 year old woman. He has known her for four months and wants to marry her. When he passes on, does all my inheritance go to her? She is obviously a gold digger trying to hustle an old man. Are there any protections for him or his family and their ability to retain inheritance?

And you thought you'd have a comfortable retirement instead of having to flip burgers in your old age. I hate to break it to you, but these are the breaks. You could possibly beg your Dad to remember you in his estate plan.

Not really. If he wants to give it all away to someone else, and is of sound mind, he can do it. Inheritance is a privilege, not a right.
