The law in Malta does state that under no circumstances can you see your father's will until he is alive. Only your father can and his notary!
The best way to find out if you are going to inherit his property after his death is to speak directly to your dad. But he has all the right not to tell you.
And also the law in Malta states that a spouse is next to inherit if their partner dies, spouse before children.
Although she isnt your mother, she is your father's wife.
A will is only going to transfer property he owns. As you said, he doesn't OWN the house. The problem is how title is held. Your dad needs to change it so that his heirs get their "rights of survivorship". Then he doesn't even need a will to make sure the property transfers to you, although he still should have one. I think you both should see an attorney.
one question that comes to my mind...is it true that even though the house is not in dad's name, by having a will stating that property should be transfered to me I would still get a percentage of the house?
