    Nah it’s just people, doesn’t matter if they’re famous. I used to work in a law office and the family and estate cases were the absolute worst. Some people just turn into vile cretins when someone dies. Give me a good old criminal case any day over that nonsense.

      Out of curiosity, how enforceable is a “if anyone contests this will legally, their portion becomes 0 and what would have been theirs is divided up among the others who haven’t contested it” clause?

        I’d have to look it up, ianal but I don’t think that’s a thing where I live. I personally have not seen any weird punishment like that for contesting a will.
