Is it customary that beneficiary decendancy go to direct heirs, by bloodline, of a trust when an heir dies?

Edwin George Fee
Answered by attorney Edwin George Fee (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Whiteford, Taylor & Preston L.L.P.
The creator of a trust has a great deal of flexibility in determining the beneficiaries of the trust, and the creator doesn't necessarily have to include his or her spouse as a beneficiary.

Do I have to leave each child something when I do my estate planning?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
My practice is to leave each child 100 dollars, which shows that you thought about them when planning your estate. Or you could mention each one and specifically disinherit each child. You have to be very specific as to your intentions.

What is my best route to go to get my inheritance back?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
There is a lot to unpack in your question. Did your father have a will? Did you (or anyone) report your brother's theft while your father was alive? If your father had a will, you need to bring it to the attention of the probate court where he died. If he did not have a will, you will likely need to handle his estate through a process known as administration. Because you mention undue influence and breach of fiduciary duty, I assume your father had a will in place. But I could be in error. In any case, please contact an estate planning attorney as soon as possible to prevent further waste of your father's estate assets.
