Yes, I told her help her dad lawyer up.
From what I'm seeing common law here is marriage, unless an iron clad prenup, it's half his, she can't will his half of the house away. Joint assets are just that...joint. Even a iron clad prenup is questionable after almost 40 years together. He wasn't a renter, one bed up until the last few years.
I really suspect she never thought he'd out live her. I told her to get him the best lawyer they can.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
