ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- Estate attorney Sarah Meinhart is raising awareness about two often-overlooked estate planning pitfalls—lapse and ademption—that can significantly affect how a person's assets are distributed after death.
"Many people don't realize that changes in their assets or beneficiaries can result in gifts from their will failing entirely," said Meinhart. "That's why regular estate plan reviews are critical."
A lapsed gift occurs when a named beneficiary passes away before the testator, while ademption refers to gifts of specific assets that no longer exist at the time of death. In both cases, the intended gift may not reach the designated recipient.
