[WSBAPT] Lawsuit Recovery Distribution Provision

[Tom Garvey]

Hello Listmates,

Does anyone have or know where I can find precise language for a provision in a Will that allocates all of the winnings/recoveries from a pending plaintiff-injury lawsuit to a specific beneficiary? Should I cite the specific parties or cause no.? (John Doe v. Microsoft, for example)

I don't want it to become a specific/pecuniary gift that must be satisfied if the Testator uses some of the funds while they are alive, so there needs to be very strategic and careful language used.

Was just wondering if anyone has done something similar.

Thank you,
