I am not even sure if a common law marriage is legal in Georgia. The man and woman were together for the past 9 years living in Georgia. They have a house together under both of their names, etc. The man, or her "husband" and she calls him, died recently. She is wondering what her rights are? Is she entitled to all of his remaining property if he did not have a will?
