How do I remove a name or a deceased person (niece and her heirs) from my will and revocable living trust?

Estate Planning lawyer at Ashcraft & Ashcraft, Ltd.
You cannot change a Will in that manner. A new Will or a Codicil amending the Will is required. Formal execution with witnesses is required. A trust does not require the same formality but as an important document should be amended in a way that does not open it to collateral attack. Assuming the trust permits amendment, a written amendment identifying the deletions and other changes that flow therefrom should be prepared. It should be executed in the same manner as the original trust.

How does one remove beneficiary?

It is hard to answer without knowing more details. If the deed to the property is half in the trust and half in her name then you probably cannot do anything. If the whole house is in the trust and she is a beneficiary of the trust then he, if competent, can amend the trust to remove her. If he is no longer competent to change/amend the trust then it is harder.

Is a postnup agreement essential before making a will?

No, unless there are issues with mixed families and separate property that will cause the will-making process to be easier.
