In this episode, Senior Editor David Lenok speaks with Jacqueline Bevilaqua, associate at Katsky Korins, about the interesting estate plan of rapper Adam Yauch ( one-third of the Beastie Boys). As they examine Adam Yauch’s estate, David and Jacqueline discuss how to delicately manage the challenges that often come with high-net-worth clients and what steps need to be taken before incorporating copyright into a will.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • Possible reasons why a copyright clause made it into Adam Yauch’s will, despite him being a co-owner of his artistic property 

  • How to work with strong-willed clients who insist on using their will to make a public statement

  • What to consider when incorporating copyright into a client’s will

  • What it means to help your clients “play the tape through” when they’re appointing guardianship — and why it’s important

  • And more!

Tune in now and know that you are the one who can “fight for the right” to protect your clients after death.
