Is it legal to share a will?

Answered by attorney Lorenzo L. Angelino
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Lorenzo L. Angelino
There is no law about privacy of a Will, if the Testator wanted to keep it private, they should not have given it to other people.

How do I leave everything to my kids?

Answered by attorney Susan Goodkind Wideman (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Wideman Law Center, P.C.
You may want to avoid using a will to divide up your estate since that goes through Probate and your spouse could assert an interest in the assets even though you left him out of the will. Rather you should consider a revocable living Trust or naming your children as beneficiaries on all of your assets. I would recommend you work with an attorney on this if it important to you.

Will the IRS take the home left to my brother in a will? How?

Answered by attorney John F Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
With just a simple will and a direct deed the IRS would indeed consider the inherited home his asset and subject to potential collection action. There are ways to protect such a gifting, and therefore would be very wise for your mother-in-law to see an attorney and perhaps avoid probate altogether.
