But a child has no actual entitlement to benefit from a parent. That is key and is often not understood.
OP - If your partner is completely excluded from the will, he will become aware of that when not invited by solicitor to reading.
Tbh, heaven forbid but if my parents passed tomorrow we are all aware that all property, belongings, etc. are split fairly. We know this because our parents have told us. Everything down to my mothers jewellery is assigned and thats just how we like it. Our parents decided who will get what and there is no bickering about it whatsoever. My mother showed us her jewellery box and said "Someday, this ring will belong to X and this one to Y" and so on.
, with minimal input from her 3 brothers, who are spread over the globe.
They have both treated him very shabbily since my grandmother died and wouldn't dream of giving him anything - a meal out, Christmas or Birthday present for instance!
But if they are spread over the globe how can they look after their father?
Is it a crime to live abroad?
The other two brothers are ganging up on my Mum - DEMANDING to see the will and using everything they can think of to 'guilt' her into asking their father to change his will.
It feels like they're just waiting for him to die so that they swoop like vultures. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the solicitors office when the day comes, just to see the shock on their self-centred money hungry faces!!

One brother adores my Mum and feels that as she's been at their beck & call, putting their care ahead of herself, that she should be sole beneficiary to any estate.
I could go into greater depth but I don't think I'd be believed.... it's so sad.
They turn up about once a year, surprised to find him in good health and go out of their way to upset him and put him down.
