Gray Rockin' EvelynSo, I have just enough money that I should probably have a will.I'd like to leave half that money to a friend who is chronically homeless, and the remainder to my siblings & other rellies.But since my friend is homeless, he may be difficult or impossible to reach. I'd like to include a provision that, if my friend is still unreachable after some reasonable amount of effort to find him, all the money just goes straight to the siblings & rellies.The problem is that I plan to name one of my siblings to be my executor, so they would be the one trying to get hold of my friend. There's a conflict of interest there, since failing to find my friend would reward them with a double share of my rather meager estate.I trust my sibling/executor; & the biggest worry really is stopping my sibling from exhausting themselves trying to find my friend.So, my actual legal question is: Is there a risk that just the existence of this conflict of interest could make the will invalid; or cause some big legal hassle for my sibling/executor?The whole point of getting my affairs in order is to minimize what I will be putting my sibling/executor through. I don't want to screw things up to the point where they wish I'd died intestate.I'm really asking for just general "this is how general legal practice generally handles this sort of thing;" but, fwiw, I reside in Washington state, & my sibling/executor lives in California.Thanks 😊 <a href="https://beige.party/tags/LegalFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LegalFedi</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FediLaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediLaw</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/LegalTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LegalTips</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Legal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Legal</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Lawyers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lawyers</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Will" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Will</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Wills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wills</a> Possibly useful details: *The homeless friend has a working telephone and email address; & generally keeps in touch both with me & his son. **The sibling has agreed to be executor, and they & I will probably discuss all this several times prior to my future demise.

Chery (Great Australian Pods)Big afternoon planned (not really). Going to get our new wills signed and witnessed at the local shopping centre. Then off for a late-ish lunch to celebrate our mortality. There shall probably be wine involved.*After the signatures.<a href="https://aus.social/tags/Mortality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mortality</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Wills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wills</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Lunch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lunch</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Wine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wine</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Australia</a>

Ted CadwalladerMy brother passed away recently and I’m executor of his will. I am sure learning a lot about <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/legal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#legal</a> things. Most of what I’ve read does not have “see a <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/lawyer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lawyer</a>” near the top of the “to do” list. I’m adding it to my list.
