Sham marriages could trigger intestate succession nightmare

Marriage

Natalie O’Neill reports in Sham Marriage Hell, Miami New Times, July 31, 2008, that a man in his attempt to obtain a green card married a woman whom he would later learn had wed at least nine other men and maybe as many as sixteen!

Special thanks to David S. Luber (Attorney at law, Florida Probate Attorney Wills and Estates Law Firm) for bringing this situation to my attention and for pointing out that this “could make for some interesting intestate succession cases.”
