This is a really helpful article explaining the importance of planning your estate and will carefully if you are responsible for paying any form of spousal or child maintenance.
When does the obligation to pay maintenance to children and former spouses end? This is a vital consideration that is often overlooked in estate planning and when wills are drafted. A lack of proper planning can have serious unintended consequences for the people you want to benefit from your estate.
