Will my separated wife be able to claim my inheritance while being separated or after my divorce?

Hello, My parents living abroad (currently non U.S citizens, who will be becoming U.S Green card holders eventually) are looking forward to transfer the Fixed Deposit funds (held outside U.S) and which is currently in their name over to me as GIFT. I will be the Legal owner of the funds once the transfer is completed, and the funds will be held outside U.S, with power of attorney given to my parents to add or remove funds from my account. I am currently separated from my wife for almost 4 years, and living in PA, and so does my wife. In the case of divorce, will my wife be able to claim the funds which will be transferred to me from my parents as Gift? Please advise. Thank you.

Does my mother in law have all rights to the property?

My father in law passed away recently and he was the sole owner of his house in Riverside CA. He was married for 42 years until he passed away. Now she wants to put the property in her name and upon her death designate it to whom she so chooses. Does she automatically inherit the house? If so how what would she have to do? Since the deed said his name and as a single man and he left no will wouldn't it go half to my children whom are listed as his grandchildren?

How do I find a lawyer to protect my inheritance from opportunists?

My mother has a friend who I think had too much control over her finances. At age 50 I finally moved out and this was after making financial mistakes. I lived with and helped my mother for 10 years. Now an opportunistic woman has moved on her finances. My mother has never trusted me and kept me in the dark about everything. Do I have rights to secure her future as well as my own? Or am I merely someone who no lawyer would take as a client as she tells me? What role is her friend taking by having so much access to her accounts and emails taking money just like her financial advice who stole she doesn’t know how much. I do want to sit back and just watch this happen, I need security and my mother doesn’t care.
