Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

Partitioning of common assets

I would like half of our accumulated

assets put in my name only. Our last

will and testament (trust) names our

only son as sole inheritor. My half would

go to charitable causes. My husband is

reluctant to split up the money.
