Hypo: old man (OM) dies owning a few valuable paintings, a house, and some cash. He has a trust set up to benefit his surviving spouse for life. Remainder to OM’s 3
Kids. Om excepted the valuable paintings from the trust. OM specifically bequests the paintings to his eldest daughter. She sells 2 of the 3 paintings. She then dies before taking possession of 3rd painting (it’s being held by a consignment shop). Does painting go to her surviving spouse or residuary of trust?

Need more facts and docs, but probably is now asset of daughter’s estate (which could mean her spouse depending on her docs or could mean something else if intestate). Is there a specific clause re possession? My view is that she survived him, so regardless of whether she picked it up from the shop, it was her’s at death as long as there isn’t an unusual clause. Look at survivorship provision and provision re art very carefully.

I’m a new analyst at an IB group. I’ve felt that I’ve done well my first month or two and delivered higher quality work, but I feel that lately I’ve been slipping up the past few weeks given the intensity of the deal as well as having multiple peripheral work streams. It also doesn’t help the second year analyst quit so I don’t necessarily have a resource to lean into. (Cont.)

I’m thinking of leaving my insurance defense firm and opening my own practice the beginning of next year. What is a reasonable hourly rate/flat fee for estate planning or probate litigation? My view is so distorted because insurance defense rates are a race to the bottom in order to compete for business. So I do not want to undersell myself if that makes sense.
