Lawyer Reveals Details Behind The Bitter Feud For Bob’s Fortune
Former prime minister Bob Hawke passed away in May of this year, leaving behind an astonishing Labor legacy for everyday Australians. But it took only two months after his death for the family he left behind to become entangled in an ugly battle over his estate.
Bob’s second wife Blanche d’Alpuget received the lion’s share of his vast, multi-million dollar fortune, while his three children Rosslyn, Susan and Stephen, and stepson Louis Pratt, received a one-off payment of $750,000 each. According to The New Daily, Hawke’s youngest daughter Rosslyn Dillon appointed lawyers to contest the division of his will. Rosslyn reportedly engaged family law firm Tiyce & Lawyers to fight the will, citing “inadequate family provisions”.
It is believed Rosslyn told Blanche of her intention to challenge the will in a ‘tense’ phone call in May.
If Rosslyn and Blanche do not reach a private agreement, it could reach the NSW Supreme Court. Leora Tius, Wills and Estates Associate solicitor at Sydney’s Atkinson Vinden Lawyers, told New Idea that Rosslyn has a strong chance in fighting the provision of her father’s will.
