The best way to protect your son's future inheritance against your daughter-in-law is by having your Wills create a trust for his benefit which would hold his share of your estate.

The trust would be able to pay your son the income and/or principal of the trust, but keep it away from his spouse. Upon your son's death, the money could go to his children, rather than to his spouse.
