Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Maryland
What effect does a divorce have on a Maryland will drafted prior to the divorce. No changes were made to the will after divorce. Is the ex-spouse entitled to anything or is that null and void?

As a matter of law, your spouse is no longer entitled to a spousal elective share from your estate. There may be other matters presented and you should contact me for a last will and testament.
