Community and Separate Property

Dear Len & Rosie,

My boyfriend and I are registered domestic partners. He is a widower, and I am a widow. Shortly after we meet he made out a living trust leaving everything to his son and two grandchildren. We live in his home which is part of the trust. If he dies do I get thrown out on the street? Do I have any recourse? I give him money every month which he deposits into his banking account. I am afraid that if he dies, I will be homeless.

Medi-Cal Planning

Dear Len & Rosie,

My mother is 84 years old and is in poor health. She has been on Medi-Cal for years. She is very concerned that upon her death her mobile home will have to be sold to payback the cost of her surgeries. Can this be true?
