Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Ohio

Canceling of a will

When I remarried on 5-1-04 I put my new wife as my benificer on everything.Do I need to cancel out the will with my ex or is it voided because of the divorce and changing of the benificers?

Re: Canceling of a will

You should redo your estate planning to avoid any confusion. If you've made your new wife the benficiary on all your assets, and you may have omitted some assets, all assets will pass outside probate anyway. To be thorough, I would redo your estate planning. For more info, please contact my office at (248)851-3171.
