A northern Israeli family court recently invalidated a will in which a woman had left her entire estate to her niece, excluding her children from inheritance.
In November 2014, the woman, a mother of four, created a will in which she designated all her property to her niece living in the U.S., leaving only four shekels (around $1) to be shared among her children. However, four years later, she approached her lawyer with the intention of revoking this will.
In November 2018, she signed a new document titled “Will,” stating that she wished to revoke the prior will. The secretary of the lawyer, who was present at the signing, wrote on the document that she “confirms the revocation of the will.”
