End run around dads wishes

[vigilant]

After Dad died , Beneficiary of trust was guilted by cotrustee into signing an agreement to deduct gifts (from her share) she had received from him during his life. He did not intend this to happen. He wanted split equally. This is an end run around his wishes. Will the surrogate allow it?

Did dad have a trust or a will?

If it was a will, a court oversees his bequests.

There are remedies for violations of those bequests under a will.

Hence, the reason for probate courts.

If it was a trust, many unusual things can and do occur.

There are some costs savings under a trust.

There are also many Swiss Cheese like holes that allow "goodies" to go missing.

A consultation with a GOOD lawyer allows one to choose the correct vehicle.

Or, do what I've done, give your junk away while you're alive.

If you want Luther to have grandpappy's 12 gauge, hand it to him today.

If you want Petunia to have mammy's 400 karat cubic zirconia silver-plated necklace, give it to her today.

Life is only as hard as you make it.

Where am I looking in your eyes for a bequest AJ?

I was (& now did) going to say the same thing, disagreeable.

Betty and disagreeable, you're a little too late. You should have seen the run on mys stuff when the offspring heard dad was giving away stuff! They've been cleaning me out all my life! Yeah, Mrs. AJ is in on, too. LOL What they don't know is, I'm planning on outliving them all and inheriting it all back!!! ROTFL

I have two sons and a daughter. Fine young people, if I must say so.

How many do you have, Betty?

I never married & I don't have any kids. Sometimes I wish I did but I have my beagle.

Beagles are much better behaved and smarter than many people. I've heard of one that flies WWI airplanes! LOL

& I haven't had one ask for a TV, computer, car, to borrow money or anything like that yet.

My children have stated being of sound mind, they never intend to have children.
