My parents want to update their wills and would like to know a couple of things:
- Is there an age at which solicitors are expected to ask for proof they are of sound mind, or is clearly understanding what they are asking for and why sufficient? The first solicitor they contacted wants a doctors note, but their doctor is newish and has never met them...
- Dad doesn't like charities who take people to court re challenging wills. He wants a clause saying if any charity they leave bequests to tries taking legal action to get more, then they get nothing. Is that at all feasible?
