Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Arizona

Disinherit children from prior marriages

My husband has been married twice before. He has three grown children. Can we disinherit the children so that I am the sole benficiary? We would like to leave anything we have after both our deaths to our grandchildren only.

Re: Disinherit children from prior marriages

Thank you for your inquiry. Generally speaking, a competent adult can leave his/her estate to anyone he/she chooses (although there are limitations on disinheriting minor/dependent children or current spouses). If you'd like to discuss the appropriate estate planning tools, please contact my office for a free initial consultation.
