Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Michigan
marriage after a will made
i'm getting married and already have a will giving everything to my daughters. after i wed does this will have any legal strenght or is it not valid anymore? i would want to give her a life time place to live but wouldn't want anyone living there with her. and can that be arranged? and i wouldn't want her kids to take advantage of her then either. thank you for your help.

Your spouse can always take an elective share by statute. This means that you cannot disinherit your spouse. You may be able to get around this with a prenuptual agreement or a trust. Please contact my office at (248)8513171.
