Wording of a Will

Question

My mother’s husband (in a second marriage) wrote a will, but we do not know whether the wording is sufficient from a halachic standpoint. He has brothers who are heirs, and he also has his wife, whom he wants to inherit as well. How should the inheritance be formulated so that it is valid according to Halacha?

Answer

Shalom u’vrachah 

It is not possible to write all the rules here. 

It is recommended to call the Beit Hora’ah line at 0733260800, extension 12, where you can speak with a dayan who will be able to guide you in this matter.
