Frequently Asked Questions by our clients in Indiana

Q:

If I leave my farming operation to my child who remains on the farm, how can I treat my other children fairly?

A:

This is tough, but there are several approaches to consider. It may be possible to use life insurance to provide equalizing funds. Also recognize that a "fair" distribution does not necessarily require an "equal" distribution, especially if assistance has been provided for non-farming children such as a college education, etc. Finally, a family discussion may be very beneficial. You may be surprised that the children, themselves, have thought of, and perhaps even discussed, this problem. In summary, this is a difficult but not necessarily an insoluble problem.
