There are questions about whether Mary has ever even met DJT. There are seemingly no pictures of them together.

These family things involving estates can get ugly. I recently went through that with a family farm and 5 co-owners.

Your situation happens often and it tears families apart. I was in the estate planning business for a time and to see 4 siblings ruin a 10 million dollar a year company after the father died was tragic. I proposed some planning with them prior to the fathers passing and none of them believed it would happen the way it did.

Another client had to sell one of the three family farms just to pay the estate taxes dues. Their small town lawyer, against my recommendations of life insurance to pay future estate taxes, recommended no life insurance, 10 years later they now have a huge bill due.

People want to “avoid probate” by putting multiple people on beneficiary deeds. Ridiculous.
