In another Estate and Beneficiary case, plaintiff loses in this Missouri case/  The Show Me Blog reports:

"Missouri court of Appeals Southern District dismisses deceased heirs’ combined suit against deceased’s second wife and the law firm that prepared their joint wills after widow disinherited the deceased’s children after he died."

Jeana Jackson, et al., v. Williams, Robinson, White & Rigler, P.C., John Williams, and Ellen Moore,  28041

"The possibility that Plaintiffs will be deprived of their inheritance because of the alleged negligence of Williams is, as of now, purely speculative and uncertain. Because it was not certain they would ever have an estate or any vested right to protect, nor that they would survive the life tenant). For the foregoing reasons, Plaintiffs have failed to state a claim for legal malpractice."
