In most states, a spouse who has not agreed to be disinherited can take legal action against a decedent who disinherited them in a will or trust. Also, disinherited children can take legal action, especially if they can show the decedent disinherited them due to undue influence, duress, or lack of mental capacity.
If the decedent had children, the children of the decedent inherit all of the property that the decedent owned. If a child died before the decedent with children of their own (grandchildren of the decedent), the grandchildren step into the place of their parent and receive that parents share of the decedents estate.
The straight answer is Yes, your Will should contain a deliberate exclusion naming the person that will not be inheriting from your estate. It will include their full name and the relationship to you and it should also state that this person should not receive any of your estate.
A. A parent has just cause to disinherit a child if: (1) The child has raised his hand to strike a parent, or has actually struck a parent; but a mere threat is not sufficient. (2) The child has been guilty, towards a parent, of cruel treatment, crime, or grievous injury.
Each child of the deceased person will share equally in the separate property. If any of the deceased persons children are also deceased, their descendants (the deceased persons grandchildren) will inherit by roots (equivalent to per stirpes in other states).
