We strongly recommend to marrying and separating parties that they give consideration to preparing a new Will.
Marriage and divorce invalidate a previously existing Will. In the event you do not have a Will or, alternatively, have a Will which was executed either prior to the date of marriage or during the marriage, we recommend that you have a new Will prepared.
A person who is not yet divorced is entitled to claim an interest in their spouse’s estate even if the spouse has passed away having made a Will excluding that person. Seek our advice.
Friedman Lurie Singh & D’Angelo can help you with all estate planning questions and the preparation of a new Will.
