Learn how to use necessary safeguards to effectively draft documents that disinherit family members.
Drafting estate planning documents that severely curtail a family member’s interest in an estate or trust or fully disinherits a family member is a balancing act. The family member(s) affected usually will contest these provisions, especially if they were not aware that they were treated differently than anticipated. Family members typically affected are spouses and children where the emotional impact of such provisions can be quite high. This topic seeks to demonstrate how to approach the drafting of disinheritance or limitation provisions while also seeking to mitigate litigation risk.
