Question

My husband and I wrote our wills in 1998. My husband died suddenly. In the will, it states that my son in law will get the riding mower. Is it in reference to the riding mower from 1998 because that was is long gone? Or, does he get the one we had at the present?

Answer

Does it say "whatever riding mower we own at the time of my death"? In order to answer the question, an attorney would need to know EXACTLY how the Will is worded.
