She watched over by a private nurse, her attorney, and an accountant — Clark was said to have considered her collection of dolls to be her closest companions.

2Frank Sinatra No Contest – Frank, married four times, had a no contest clause in his Trust because he did not want his family to fight over his inheritance. A living trust is similar to a will, but it is not subject to probate – judicial certification – and therefore does not become a public document.

3Robin Williams Image Licensing – Williams left behind an estate estimated somewhere between $50 and $100 million including art and investments, Napa Valley mansion and home in Tiburon. His image licensing, as in most situations with deceased celebrities, would normally provide the estate the opportunity for additional earnings, but Williams put a restriction clause in his Trust that bars anyone from using his likeness for 25 years after his death.
