An important point for everyone to take away from this is the existence of the anti-lapse statute. If your will leaves something to someone who has passed away, then you need to think about whether you want that person’s descendants to receive the inheritance. Unless your will explicitly states otherwise, then they will. If that is not your desire, then you should have a new will drawn up. In reality, in the event one of your beneficiaries predeceases you, then you ought to consider drafting a new will just to clear up potential future confusion.
