Q. Can a married man who has been married to his only wife for 60+ years in his will give 100% to theirchildren an not her?
A: Provided there is no question that the two were married, at the very least she is likely entitled something called an "elective share" and there may be other issues that protect her interest to probate (or non probate) property.

Probate issues are often complicated looking, but a good probate attorney will be able to assist her in a number of different ways depending on her specific situation.
Q. In an accident, tboned a lady who pulled out. Her company accepted 100%> liable. Broken ribs, neck back tissue damage an
A: Before you settle your claim, I highly suggest you at least have a brief consultation with a local attorney. Most should be willing to give you advice on an hourly basis if you want to try and handle settlement negotiations on your own (although, I don't recommend that generally).

Giving advice in your type of situation is heavily fact dependant. Ignoring the exact details of your treatment and the accident itself, improperly settling personal injury claims with the at-fault driver's insurance may have negative consequences on other insurance claims that may be available to you, is likely to impact your obligations to your health insurance company, and can prematurely cut off payment for future necessary medical treatment.

There are so many things that can go wrong, you owe it to yourself to spend thirty minutes or so to get some reliable legal advice from a local attorney.

Q. My mother passed away 4 years ago, 3 months ago my stepfather has finally opened her estate. What does this mean?
A: You should not make assumptions. However, if you assume the will was filed and valid, and that the estate can otherwise afford to pay all valid liens and judgements, that the deceased had valid legal title to the property, and that your step father follows the law and directions in the will... You might get the property.

To ensure all of the above (and more), you need to talk to a local attorney and ask him/her to look into it for you.
