Wills and Estates
I left my husband last year. Can I claim a share in his estate after his death?
My husband never wanted to have kids but I wanted a family and have kids. Therefore, I left my husband last year and moved into another house in the same city (Charlottesville, Virginia). I never filed for divorce as I thought he might change his mind some day and we could reunite. We never met or spoke to each other in this time period. Few days back I got to know that he died due to some illness. Can I claim my share in my husband’s estate?

My Mother remarried after the death of my Father. She is 74 and married a young man only 35 years old. Two weeks before she died, she changed her Will to leave everything to this man. She also included a clause in the Will stating that if anyone contested the Will they are not to receive any part of her estate even if they win. Her prior Will left everything to her children including me. What do we do in this situation?
