What is the best way to leave an inheritance for your children in order to avoid court battles?

Image
While there is no right or wrong way to leave an inheritance for your children, there are some good ways to avoid messy court battles over it. The best way to leave an inheritance that avoids this mess is through a trust. A trust allows you to keep control of the money and decide who will receive it. You can leave instructions in the trust about how the inheritance should be divided among your beneficiaries. This will prevent future fights because the instructions are explicit, and there is no question about what you meant by them.

Can a paternity test be done before the baby is actually born?

What does Chapter 11 bankruptcy entail?

Image
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy is a legal procedure in which the assets of a person or business are evaluated, placed under the control of a trustee , and then used to pay creditors. It's often used as a last-ditch effort to reduce the overwhelming debt of an individual or business, but it's not appropriate for everyone: The process requires time and money, and it has substantial consequences for credit, assets, etc. Bankruptcy is generally divided into two types (or "chapters"), depending on whether the debtor's assets are liquidated or sold off. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the debtor's nonexempt property is liquidated (sold) and the proceeds are distributed to creditors. In Chapter 11 bankruptcy , the debtor remains in control of their business operations while reorganizing their debts under court supervision.
