Every individual beneficiary under Colin Wade's will must survive Colin by 21 days unless a particular gift expressly states a different period. Draft one global survivorship clause.
Maya Fox gives £16,000 to her aunt Rosa Fox if Rosa survives Maya by 30 days. If Rosa fails that condition, Maya wants the same sum to pass to her friend Imani Reed. Draft the complete gift.
Asha Cole gives one half of residue to her son, Ben Cole. If Ben dies before Asha leaving descendants alive at Asha's death, Asha wants Ben's half to pass to those descendants by family branch, with the descendants of a deceased descendant taking that person's branch share. Draft the substitution provision.
Jon Field and his older sister Ellen Field die in circumstances where the order of death cannot be established. Jon's will gives residue to Ellen with no survivorship period or substitute. Explain the document risk created by relying on the statutory order-of-death presumption and draft a future-facing instruction for a new will using a 28-day condition and residue gift-over to Jon's friend Kai Long.
A will says globally that every beneficiary must survive by 28 days, but a later clause gives £10,000 to Dana Park 'if she survives me by seven days' without saying which term prevails. The client intends the seven-day period for Dana only. Diagnose the conflict and redraft the Dana clause so the exception is explicit.
Lewis Hart requires all beneficiaries to survive him by 14 days. He gives £22,000 to his daughter Erin Hart, with Erin's descendants taking her gift by family branch if she fails the condition, and gives his watch to Omar Wells, with the watch falling into residue if Omar fails. Draft only the global survivorship and the two gift-over provisions.
