The Rule Against Perpetuities

If you have any questions regarding your or estate plan in general, or would like a no-charge consultation about a plan that is just right for you, or amending an existing plan, please make an appointment with one of the knowledgeable estate planning attorneys at Schneiders & Associates, L.L.P.

LEGAL CHECKUP

Wills, living trusts to avoid probate and power of attorneys are important. Guardinships and Conservatorships may be necessary. Income Qualifying Trusts for Medicaid may be necessary. Veterans and surviving spouses may be entitled to V.A. Aid and Attendance.

HANDWRITTEN WILLS

Holographic (handwritten) wills are prone to disburse specific property to specific individuals without naming someone in a residuary clause. This creates a situation of having some property disbursed under the holographic will and having other property disbursed under intestate law.
