An unwelcomed joint owner

Mrs Wong called me today. Her husband passed away suddenly without leaving behind a Will. Now, three of her houses which are under joint names with her late husband has a new joint owner - her mother-in-law.

She asked her mother-in-law if she could sell her 1/4 share in her late husband's 50% share to her. The mother-in-law said 'No, I want to will my share to my three other sons when I pass away in the future'. 

Mrs Wong was very angry but she can not do anything to stop her.

All these anger and frustration can be avoided if her late husband has written a Will.

For more information on writing a Will, please call Mr. Chong at 012-303 9383.
