Subject: [WSBAPT] Testamentary Gift to Ex-Wife Contingent on Long List of Provisions

 

I have a client who wants to write a Will leaving a certain sum to be distributed in various chunks over time to his ex-wife provided that she fulfills a long list of provisions. Final distribution would not occur any earlier than his youngest daughter's graduation from high school (she is now twelve). My initial thought is that in order to fulfill this bequest he is going to have to put that sum into a trust for the ex-wife that contains these provisions, and designate a trustee to make the distributions as he wants. Is there a better way to do this or am I thinking along the right line?

 

Thanks,
