Estate Planning &Your Legacy - FAQs

The sometimes touchy subject of conflicts of interest for couples in estate planning


Listen Later

Today we are going to discuss the sometimes touchy subject of conflicts of interest for couples in estate planning. Tilden Moschetti, Esq. of the Moschetti Law Group in Calabasas, CA (https://moschettilaw.com) answers some of the frequently asked questions he and his estate planning law firm gets from clients.

Couples often make their estate plans together and it seems to make sense to have the same attorney advise them and prepare their documents. If this is your situation, you should be aware of the possibility that a conflict of interest could arise between you.

Conflicts happen most often if the decisions of one of you regarding your estate plan become adverse to or inconsistent with the decisions of the other. A conflict can also arise if you cannot agree on the disposition of property you jointly own. A conflict of interest between partners with the same attorney creates an ethical dilemma for me, the attorney.

Hope this was helpful!
