Re: assets ditribution in florida when one of the spouses dies.
The answer is a bit complex and depends upon how the property was titled and if all decendants are lineal decendants of both spouses. I suggest you contact an attorney to discus this. SEnd me an email if you like.

I would need to know if the residence was titled as as joint tenancy with a right of survivorship or see the deed to determine if you are correct.The rest of your question is impossible to answer without reviewing the entire situation.If you need assistance call me at my office.
