Where There's A Will??
Basically, mother in law died many years ago, father in law goes in to retirement care apartment, takes up with the warden employed by the retirement care company. Always had a feeling that she was a bit of a gold digger, so they head off and he buys a bungalow on the coast, after a couple of years she talks him in to getting married, alarm bells start ringing, then he makes his will leaving everything to my wife, but his wife can stay in the property until she dies. He is 89, she is 70, he then sees a solicitor about avoiding charges should he be taken in to care, upshot of that is that he has now signed over 50% of the property to his wife, he has been with her for 16 years, she has two sons by two previous marriages, who he cannot abide, there has been no provision in his will that in the event of her dying before him, that the title reverts back to him. We have had a long chat and he says he has been hoodwinked, what this woman has said about him behind his back is reprehensible, I know he can alter his will again but is there any way he can reclaim the 50% share of the house, he now says he was duped in to giving her. Just so it doesn't seem like sour grapes, she was recently heard to say that she couldn't wait for him to die, he really is a genuine kind man, but he is getting on in years and getting a bit of a Victor Meldrew, so not the easiest person to live with.

Sounds like your the one looking to profit from this.....
