My partner and I been together for 18 years now, we bought a house here in Sun Valley NV about 6 years ago. Our deal is if one of us die the property goes automatically to the other one not with the family member. Now seems everything changing cause his son that moves in with us about 2 years ago want a part of the home that he doesn''t deserve as far as I''m concern. His son is 40 years old , why is it my concern to provide to his family if he past away.
We are register here in Nevada as a Domestic Partnership.

I assume from your wording, that both you and your partner are on the title to the house. If the house is in joint tenancy, then regardless of your status as DPs, the house goes to the survivor. And your partner cannot change the deed without your consent and participation. If your name is not on the house, as a legal domestic partner, you have a community property interest in the house. But that interest only begins on the date that you legally registered, which necessarily is less than 3 years ago. If your partner deeds away an interest in the house that you feel is yours, your option is to file for Dissolution of the Domestic Partnership and make a waste claim.
