Celebrity's Estate Planning Miscues III - Britney Spears
All of the glamor and attention of Hollywood celebrities provide an effective example of how important proper estate planning can be and how even the rich and famous can fail to properly plan, despite their vast resources. I've previously mentioned mistakes and oversights by Heath Ledger and Anna Nichole Smith. As Steve Follet with the Arizona Estate Planning & Probate blog points out in his post, Britney Spears failed to properly fund and maintain her trust that she established. Now, with the "issues" in her life, court involvement and publicity will continue to provide fodder for entertainment shows...and estate planning attorneys. You gotta love Hollywood.
