    That’s actually really dumb because there are often legitimate reasons to contest the execution of a will. For example if the executor does something that goes against your intentions then it would be valid to challenge it. Or if there is an ambiguity in your will and it’s interpreted against your intentions then it would be valid to challenge. Why would you disinherit someone who challenges something that you would agree with if you were alive?

    It's only messy in terms of the attempted guilt. But it's very straightforward. You're the executor of the will and you have a moral obligation to carry out his wishes and not disrespect his memory by dishonoring his wishes. Everyone else can go to kick rocks. It's what he wanted with his money so that's what you're doing. It was his choice not yours

    He is legally obligated to give the money to who it was designated to as the executor. But once they receive that money, they can choose to do with it whatever they want. So once he received his portion of the money as a person written into the will, he can now do what he wants with that portion. Of course he has no obligation to give any of it to them, but he is legally allowed to give his own portion of the inheritance to whoever he wants, and of course his family will know that. The executor just gets the money to the right person. They don't then tell those people how to spend it. And he got the money to himself. Now he can do what he wants with it.

    As the executor, he has to give the money to the person it belongs to. Once that person receives the money, they can do whatever they want with it. Since HE is the one most of it belongs to, HE can do whatever he wants with his portion, which is what the relatives are going after. He has no legal obligation not to give his money to certain people - he can just choose not to.

    You will find out more about your family in the first month after the death of a loved one than the previous 30-40 years. Sad, but true. In cases such as this, where the will is going to be contentious, folks really need to name their attorney as the executor. Having to deal with guilt trips and bickering with relatives is not a good situation to be in during an emotional time such as the death of a loved one. A few thousand dollars out of the estate to an attorney is money well spent in these cases.

I also hope caller blows off any demands that he hand over his money after he receives it. He needs to remember the dearly departed's negative opinion of these people and honor his wishes by keeping what was left to him.

    Also a really good realtor (like a Ramsey Trusted one) would guide you and tell you what is best for the condo. Having a rental property is great, but you have get a decent return or it may be better investing the money. They would be able to tell you, sell as-is, rent as-is, or fix up and sell or rent. My gut feeling is that “fire-selling” the property is not the best solution and fixing it up, if you are handy snd have some good trustworthy contractors may be the way to go.

    My uncle has told me he is only including me and two of my first cousins in his will as far as nieces and nephews. He has a daughter (son died). I don’t think there will be any hard feelings about her inheritance but there will likely be towards us three cousins. He said he did it because he feels like he knows us more and has more of a relationship with us. When my paternal grandmother died she only left money for myself and one other cousin as far as grandchildren. We were the older grandchildren who lived relatively near her.

    I thought he was going to say his disinterested twin wanted half. He never did specify whether his twin was adopted along with him. In any event, the twin isn’t relevant to the situation. Sounds like he got lucky being adopted away from the birth mother. Sad. My cousin adopted a baby. The woman already had a baby, and her teenage daughter had a baby at the same time she had this one, in the same hospital. She had her other kids with her in the room ordering meals, and milked all the hospital days she could. She balked at signing the paperwork in order to fleece them for every cent she could. Then she tried to steal their car seat. 🗑

    You are the successor trustee and it is your responsibility to execute the trust as it is written! A trust can not be contested and does not go through probate! You mentioned a will, did you misspeak? The trust rules in all cases. BTW, when signing any documents for the trust you must put TTEE after you signature to identify your role as the successor trustee. Very important!

I'm now having to resort to a lawyer in order to get them out. This will ruin my relationship with my uncle, cousins, wife, and probably other family members.

    People can leave such a mess for their family when they choose to delegate their assets by will to survivors unevenly. Regardless of how responsible the recipients are, it just leaves a mess for the recipients receiving more than another that can cause more grief than a person can endure in a family. Money and assets are just that. They are worthless to the person that accumulated the assets after they are gone. I have a story that can go on for quite a while about what I witnessed in my wife's family that not only tore the family apart but ended in the stressful death of three sisters. My wife was one of them. Money and assets are just so useless after we are gone. To maintain our lives in our golden years, yes, but after we are gone. they are useless. Don't leave a legacy of uneven love to your children! Thanks.
