Just two weeks before, the three brothers couldn\u2019t see eye to eye. After their dad died and left Dipo, the first son, to manage his estate, Ibrahim and Emmanuel disagreed with him on almost all key decisions. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The fight carried on until Dipo asked the siblings to consult with an estate administrator. That was the decision that turned the course of events around for good.<\/span><\/p>\n

When a parent dies, the aftermath could result in bringing the children together or tearing them apart. The latter was the case for Ibrahim, Emmanuel and Dipo. <\/span><\/p>\n

How Dipo handled the disagreement is a useful template for addressing this staple inheritance contest in <\/span>Estate Planning<\/span>. While there is a no single solution, these ideas generally help to keep families from falling apart:<\/span><\/p>\n

Appoint a neutral institutional administrator<\/b>
\nThe first step to eliminating bias and sibling rivalry is to seek the appointment of an institutional administrator like <\/span>FBN Trustees<\/span> to the estate. This will provide an assurance to disgruntled siblings that an unbiased third-party is taking care of the process and assets are being properly distributed or managed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hold open discussions about the estate<\/b>
\nBeing the executor of a <\/span>Will<\/span> is no small responsibility. To mitigate unhealthy suspicion, conversations around the assets should be open and updates on changes should be communicated to all concerned parties as often and as clearly as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have been left to manage an estate under similar circumstances as Dipo, your first step is to engage an expert, credible institutional executor like FBN Trustees. <\/span><\/p>\n
