Unless there is a anti-nuptial agreement in place, a deceased spouse can no longer disinherit a surviving spouse in Florida anymore. So the $1 possibly won't work. She would be entitled to at least 30% of his worldwide assets, with set offs of assets that may have been jointly owned between them or she received as a distribution from him. This includes assets that were jointly owned with someone else or payable to someone else (like in life insurance).
