Australia: The battle over the estate of Bob Hawke
The much loved former Prime Minister and Aussie legend Bob Hawke died on 16 May 2019. His estate is now set to come before the Court as his daughter, Rosslyn, is preparing to take action to dispute the Will.
When he died, Bob had a Will in place that left his entire estate to his widow, Blanche d’Alpuget. By separate agreement to the Will, lump sum amounts of $750,000 each were provided to his children, Rosslyn, Susan and Steve as well as Blanche’s son Louis.
The estate for distribution pursuant to the Will is large, including a family home estimated to be worth over $15M.
