Robin Williams Estate Dispute An Example Of Why Careful Estate Planning Is Important
I have previously discussed the claim by Robin William’s widow Susan Schneider Williams that her husband suffered from Lewy body dementia. This type of dementia is a brain disease that can cause hallucinations and severe anxiety. The bitter estate feud that took place after the comedians death is a reminder of why married couples need to be prepared for the sudden and unexpected passing of a spouse. This article suggests resources that people can go to for estate planning assistance. It is also extremely important to speak with an estate planning professional to avoid the type of bitter estate disputes that are growing increasingly common.
