Re: What is Equitable property?
There are two method where a wife may take from a husband's estate. A wife may take under the Last Will and Testament or she may take under an elective share which is otherwise known as an election against the will. You should also understand that certain property may not be subject to the Last Will and Testament because it has been designated to a beneficiary through another legal document.
I recently answered a question on this point. Kindly look into the LawGuru database under my profile for a question in the Probate, Trusts, Will & Estates section for further details.
