I hope everyone understands this is catnip for lawyers. Probate court is the biggest scam going. THE LAWYERS GET THE MONEY. It doesnt take 5 years to settle this. Both sides were working it. They took that estate for everything they could get.

Didn’t a guy try that a while back with a faux Howard Hughes will?

And got caught.

Had to come back and say: Look, here it is again, the same error!

This is from Spectator World in a piece about this broken romance mean texts thing with that actor Jonah Hill “...fair or not, any potential future partner of [Sarah] Brady’s will wonder if she’ll give them the Jonah Hill treatment if and when they break up. And that bad wrap extends past dating...”

Yep.

But lawyers had a financial field day with it, as they always do.

Gotcha! I was looking at it in too technical a way.

It's a case of pay 'em now, or pay 'em later.

You have a proper will drawn up by a good T&E lawyer, you don't even need a lawyer to probate. I've probated three wills, it's not difficult at all.
