Taft private client attorneys Daniel J. Hoffheimer and Aaron H. Kaplan’s article “Beneficiary Designation Alert: U.S. Supreme Court Addresses Law Invalidating Ex-Wife As Insurance Beneficiary” was published in the September/October 2018 issue of the Probate Law Journal of Ohio. In the article, they discuss how revocation on divorce statutes can be useful, but stress the importance of updating beneficiary designations after any major life event.

Hoffheimer concentrates his practice on estate planning, trust and probate law, nonprofit and charitable organizations and foundations, family businesses, elder law and guardianships, estate and gift taxation, charitable giving, including art and collectibles, and probate court litigation. 

Kaplan focuses his practice on estate planning, probate administration and trust administration, providing counsel to individuals, families, small businesses and tax-exempt organizations.
