[IN] How can I structure my estate plan to fairly divide high-value assets in a blended family and avoid probate issues?

I completed an eForms Last Will and Testament document from your site for the state of Indiana. I have a blended family — my wife with two minor children, and three children from a previous relationship. In my will, it looks like I leave half of my estate to my wife and the other half to my five kids. It seems like my three kids from my prior relationship are getting shortchanged. How can I, or should I, balance asset distribution in my will to satisfy Indiana probate laws?

[IN] Can I file an agreed custody and child support modification under the same case number?

If I'm filing a custody agreement in Indiana and no custody agreement has been filed prior, but we do have a child support agreement, I know I need to file it in that same county as they have jurisdiction. My question is, do I file it under that same case number? As the custody agreement does change our current child support order. And if not, would I just go to the courthouse and file it and be asked to be put on the docket?

[IN] Is a 50/50 division between a spouse and children an equitable approach in a blended family estate plan?

I just completed my last will and testament for the State of Indiana and I hold considerable assets; real estate, marketable securities, loan note payable to me, etc. Under this Last Will document, I have left 50% to my spouse and 50% to my children. I have two children with my spouse and three children with my ex-spouse. Does this division of assets make sense for my will, in the event my estate goes to Probate Court in Indiana.

[IN] Can a contractor terminate a contract for material breach when a homeowner performs unauthorized work on a job site?

I’m a contractor doing a bathroom remodel. The customer’s son keeps entering the job site and doing work without my permission. This violates our contract and exposes me to liability if he gets hurt or damages property. Am I within my rights to cancel the contract for material breach?

[IN] How does a land contract work?

My father-in-law wants to sell his old house to my wife and me, but wants to save us mortgage interest by paying him directly. I want to take all the hassle of owning the home off his shoulders. Are there any means of transaction that would allow my wife and me to pay the property taxes? As far as I can find, Indiana state law doesn't acknowledge title transfer on a lease-to-own or land contract until the wholesale price is paid.
