Common Law Marriage
Landlord Agreement
Oklahoma
What am I entitled to in my common law marriage of 8 yrs when my husband suddenly dies in oklahoma
We shopped together found Lil piece of property we purchased together but was put in his name. Worked and made improvements together. Moved a travel trailer and bldg on it which is in both our names. 3 vehicles in both our names but bank accounts savings account was only in his name. He has no living children or parents. He has one brother and two sisters. He had a will but was not updated to my knowledge. His life insurance. Policy went to two grand children we did discuss that. His sister sent me a letter says she is personal representation of his estate and is giving me 30 days to vacate the land I have worked hard to upkeep and improve and call home for 8 years. Vacate with all my possessions in 30 days. The letter states its an oklahoma lease termination letter. Her being the landlord. Letter states she placed it in my mailbox in a sealed envelope. Two sisters stole my husband's debit card from my vehicle while he lay dying in hospital. He was recently retired and had just received a ss check. I had foot surgery a year prior to this and was unable to work my regular job Terry was the provider. We have animals that was out of food our monthly bills were due and I was living at hospital with him by his side till his death. I couldn't even purchase a sandwich. It's been 10 months since he passed. I need to know what I'm invited to legally. Thanks

You are entitled to hire a local attorney. You would have to contest the will as a left-out spouse. The local attorney would have to make a case to the judge that you were common law married. It is a matter of question for a judge or jury, we cannot give you legal advice through these boxes and say what a judge or jury would rule. You can also hire an attorney to fight the eviction, as it sounds like you might be a tenant rather than a lessee.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
