A proposito di questo titolo
What happens to your estate when your spouse is the one who killed you? This episode examines one of estate law’s darkest questions — and the answer will change how you think about everything you’ve signed. Attorney and CPA Joe Cordell opens a new mini-series exploring what happens to marital assets, life insurance, and inheritance rights when a spouse commits murder. Using the case of Harold and Toni Henthorn — a Colorado man convicted of pushing his wife off a cliff — Joe unpacks how estate planning and inheritance law respond when the person named as your beneficiary is also your killer. What is the slayer rule? How do courts apply it? And what legal presumptions built into marriage — joint asset ownership, healthcare proxies, life insurance beneficiaries, even the right to control your remains — create dangerous vulnerabilities that most people never plan for? This isn’t just true crime. It’s a masterclass in why estate planning decisions you make today matter far more than you realize.
