http://www.13wentworthselbornechambers.com.au/pdfs/actwills.pdf This is an interesting paper on avoiding a will challenge. One strange bit is " The court may be less forgiving if the applicant is callous and hostile,
brought shame on the family,and was a torment for the testator.The
testator may have letters, emails and text messages from the estranged
child. The testator should be encouraged to keep copies of the
testator’s correspondence to the estranged child to make clear that the testator attempted to reach out and reconcile."
Most of the time the efforts of a testator to reach out to an estranged
and dis-disinherited person are seen as a sign that deep down the
testator really wanted to give them something!? http://www.13wentworthselbornechambers.com.au/pdfs/actwills.pdf |
