A long time ago, Edward executed a will leaving everything to his friend, Sam. Edward and Sam are no longer friends. Edward's only family is his brother and sister. He now wants to leave his estate to them. Under the intestacy law in Edward's estate, his siblings are his heirs at law. How can Edward ensure that his brother and sister inherit his estate?
What will be an ideal response?
All that Edward needs to do is revoke his will, since his siblings will inherit under intestacy law. It is still advisable that Edward execute a new will, but his siblings will inherit, regardless, after the old will is revoked.
