Question
How does one create a non-contestable will? My mother is suffering from brain cancer. My father also died from brain cancer. My mother remarried five years ago and her new husband wants the bulk of her assets. She has always kept their finances separate; however, she never created a prenuptial agreement, nor enacted a will after getting married. When she was diagnosed we immediately saw an attorney to create a will, power of attorney, and medical directives. We spent the next several weeks arranging her beneficiary status on all of her and my father's retirement accounts and life insurance, and moved the home, mountain property, and time share into quit-claim deeds in her and my name. Her husband is bad with money and has racked up 40k + in credit card debt in her name. He filed for bankruptcy the year prior to marriage and nothing is in his name. We added him to checking to write medical checks. He has stated he will contest her will. How do we prepare?
