disinheritance definition

disinheritance means that you prefer a specific individual, usually a family member, NOT to receive any of your estate, even though they may otherwise be entitled to if you didn’t have a will. For example, an individual might be an intestate heir, but you do not wish for them to receive a share of your estate, such as an estranged parent or sibling.
