Legal Question in Family Law in Minnesota
will
I own my own home; if I remarry,
how can I make sure my grown
children wlll get this property if I
should die before my husband? His
name is not on the property and he
would be wiling to sign a quit claim
deed. How would I have a will drawn
up to that effect? Could it state that
my husband could remain in the
home as--name removed--as he
wanted, but
could not sell it?

Re: will
I suggest you see a local estate planning attorney. You're going to want a will drafted, or some similar device that dictates what happens to the property. You could create what is known as a life estate for your husband, but you really need to consult an attorney to make sure this is drafted properly.
