New York marriage law against gold diggers!!!!?

[dodya]

My life is a soap drama right now. My father remarried 8 years ago. She has no kids and we thought she was nice and trusted her. We run a family business and we let her control the finances over the years. Slowly we noticed that she had a bad habit of hoarding and buying expensive materialistic things like bags, shoes, antiques and etc. Hermes, tiffanys, chanel...We let it go because we thought it was her way of letting out stress for being infertile and unable to have kids when she was younger. We thought she filled that void with objects....expensive objects.
Until recently, her friends approached us and told my father and I that she has been stealing from us all these years and even bought 3 homes overseas!!!!! She boasts of having money in accounts in overseas. She told them that she has accounts and homes in other peoples names so that we can't touch her if we ever found out.
Problem doesn't stop there. She wants all of my fathers estates. He owns about 8 properties here.This was all BEFORE he married her. That was all made by my father and real mother. She is not entilted to that in my opinion. She is going around telling people that she is going to claim his estates and even consulted a lawyer! She tells people that she is ready to fight with us after my father is gone.
I am so hurt and betrayed that it makes me cry. She is pure evil and two faced!
My father says that he already put me in his will a loooong time ago but I just read online that she does have rights to his estates even if she is not on the will.....please, I need help. I need to know the facts. I even read that if my father divorces her, she is still entitled to a portion of his money or estates? Please help me!

if they do not have a prenuptial agreement and they live in a community propriety state ?

she is entitled to 50 percent of the assets made after the marriage

the property before the marriage is not hers

he needs to see a lawyer right away and get this in writing

you should go with him

peace

A good attorney can write the divorce papers so none of this can happen. If he has to, your Dad can sell you everything for one dollar and it will be all yours. That way, not only can she not get it, but the estate taxes are limited as well.

After using the [b]gold metal detector[/b] I found that it is really a good device, it can not only help to save time but also can help you to save energy. And besides being used for looking for gold, the gold metal detectors can alao be used to help the archologist in finding treasures and used in many other important places as security tool.
