    Default Inheritance and Divorce

    My question involves divorce in the State of: Indiana

    If I inherit a large sum of money after I am married, is my husband entitled to any of the money?

    No, he is not.

    To keep it that way, do not put it in a joint account, but rather, establish a separate account for it. If you have to pay taxes on the inheritance, pay them from that account, not any account that is also owned by your spouse.
