Re: probate

Presuming that you are the one not legally married, you would have to prove that your relationship met the legal requirement of a common law spouse. Then your status could be changed to that of a wife and you could be in charge. Not as easy as it sounds. If this means a lot to you either financially or otherwise, better get a lawyer. Good Luck.
