Creating a will is a major part of estate planning and preparing for the future. It is a legal document that communicates your plan for the distribution of your assets and the care of any minor children after your death. By preparing a will ahead of time, you can make certain that your wishes will be honored and simplify the probate process for your loved ones.
The first step in creating a will is to compile a list of all your assets. Then you will decide how to distribute your property among your heirs and name an executor who will be in charge of managing your affairs. If you have minor children, you will need to choose a guardian to care for them. Our attorneys will guide you through the whole process and draft the document. In the event that your will requires changes or updates, we can easily do so. And when the will is complete, you can rest assured that your estate will be taken care of according to your wishes after your death.
Losing a family member or a loved one is hard enough. The probating of an estate adds a level of stress that amplifies the feeling of loss and grief. Our firm is uniquely suited to help you plan for the inevitable to make this process the least stressful possible. We strive to make sure that your wishes upon your passing are carried out exactly how you want them to be. We will be with you and your family from the drafting of your Will to the probating of your estate. Give us a call today and let us help you be prepared for the future.
While it is possible to draft your own will, the DIY method may not be your best option. Hiring a lawyer to create your will ensures that all components of your estate are addressed, prevents future confusion within your family, and avoids common mistakes that people tend to make when writing their own wills. It is the best way to establish a thorough, legally binding will.
