CCK Bequest Management Series – Volume 3
Our e-book series aims to help nonprofit organizations navigate challenging areas of the bequest management process. Each volume will focus on a different topic. We hope that our series will help charitable organizations effectively handle their matured bequests.
This volume focuses on the minority of estates where probate is disrupted by a legal challenge. Many estates are settled with little trouble, and this can give charitable organizations a false sense of security. CCK’s Bequest Management team delves into some of the questions organizations may have about litigation and offers some tips on how to navigate these stressful situations.
Volume 4, “Problematic Gifts: Getting Comfortable with Non-Routine Bequests” will be published in December.
