Note: The DearEsq free 'ask a lawyer' site is offered as a free informational service to the public and is not intended as legal advice. Laws vary from state-to-state, and in addition every situation is unique, and relevant facts may not be known. The answer to the question posed below may not apply to in your state or to your situation. For legal advice in your state and your situation you should consult with an attorney in your state who is familiar with the rules and laws in your state.
‘I own a house with my x-wife. Our daughter and her family now live in our house. If I die, who would get my half of the house? My x-wife and I are both remarried now.’Unfortunately, there is not nearly enough information to answer this question. What would happen will be governed by a combination of your divorce decree, your wills (if any) and whether you are in a community property or a separate property state.
Question: A more important question is, what would you *like* to have happen? Figure that out, then have a local attorney review your situation, and make recommendations as to what, if anything, you need to do to make it happen.
