How do I leave everything to my kids?

Answered by attorney Darin Christensen (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bullivant Houser Bailey PC
Your spouse has a right under to receive a portion of your joint assets regardless of what your will says. You should meet with an estate planner to structure a will that gives your spouse as little as possible. If you can get a spousal agreement from your spouse that you don't have to give your spouse anything, your spouse is not entitled to get anything. You also should talk to your mother about revising her will to leave any inheritance for you in trust for your benefit during life and then to your children. Your spouse would not be entitled to any share of that.

How do I go about changing the name of my legal guardian on my will?

Ian Alexis Heyman
Answered by attorney Ian Alexis Heyman (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Arnold Clifford LLC
The safest way to accomplish this is to simply rewrite the Will, naming the new guardian, and revoke all previous Wills. Make sure to have the new Will executed properly and witnessed by disinterested witnesses.

Do I have to sign anything at all?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
I would suggest if you are one of two heirs, that you compel a sale of the proceeds and split the funds. You will need a probate attorney to probate this property because you do not have title to the property. Near the conclusion of the probate proceeding, you could talk with the probate attorney about assigning your interest in the estate to your brother, which would facilitate the transfer. But to just refuse to sign necessary documents out of spite is not cool. Please rethink your position.
