Question:
Your attorney, Barry Smart, comes to you looking a bit exasperated and confirms with you that client, Larry Last, is coming in tomorrow with his witnesses to sign his Last Will and Testament. You calmly remind Mr. Smart that you completed Larry's Last Will and Testament and he has already reviewed and approved it. You are happy to report you placed it in Larry's file and it is ready for Mr. Smart's meeting with Larry tomorrow.
Then you learn the reason for your attorney's exasperation. He explains that he just learned that Larry has remarried. Larry married (yes, past tense) the new "love of his life" three weeks ago and they are leaving for a year long honeymoon sailing around the world the day after tomorrow. His new marriage to the former Sassy Seducer is a valid and legal marriage in the state of Florida to whom he wants to leave 25% of his entire estate. His children will split the residual (75%) of his estate equally. As he spoke with Larry, Mr. Smart also discovered that Larry's son, Martin Last, was killed in a car accident last week. In addition, Larry wants to disinherit his daughter, Mary Lake, who has irately proclaimed that her father is a monster and refused to ever accept Larry's new bride. She will not have anything to do with her father until he divorces Sassy Seducer Last. Consequently, Larry wants to leave Mary Lake's share to her children.
Further, Larry wants to include a clause in his will telling all beneficiaries that if anyone contests his will, they will not receive anything from his estate. He does not want anyone causing any legal problems for the personal representative or his estate.
Now, Larry has asked your office to make these "minor changes" to his will so he can still sign his Last Will and Testament tomorrow morning before leaving on his honeymoon. Larry will be unreachable on his sailboat for one year. Today, Mr. Smart will be in court on a complicated matter all afternoon, so you will need to make all necessary changes to Larry's will. Your supervising attorney wants to review the Last Will and Testament tonight before you leave the office. Mr. Smart has asked you to make this your top priority and sole focus of the day. You tell him it will not be a problem and you will shoot him a text as soon as you have the document ready for his approval.
