Each year, people donate roughly $286 billion to charity, but unfortunately, some of these donations might not be as legitimate as they might seem. Every now and then, a child is concerned to find out their parents randomly left a lot of money to a sketchy charitable institution. Though it can be hard to contest a will leaving money to charity, there are a few situations where this might be necessary.
When Should You Contest Your Parent’s Charitable Will Bequest?
- Your Parent Was Not in Their Right Mind When They Gave the Bequest
- You Are Concerned Your Parent Was Unduly Influenced
- You Suspect the Will Is Fraudulent
- You Have Reason to Believe There Is a More Recent Will Without the Donation
- There Is Some Other Sort of Irregularity in Your Parent’s Will
Whether you can contest the will really just depends on your circumstances. If there were any irregularities in how your parent left the money to charity, it is a good idea to speak to an estate planning litigation lawyer.
