Wills and Probate
A Will is a legal document that takes effect only upon your death.
A
Will is designed for one purpose: to dispose of your assets upon your
death.
Probate and administration are the legal process of proving that your
Will is valid, paying your creditors, and transferring property to your
heirs.
If your objective at the time of your passing is to merely distribute
your property and declare your desire as to who should raise your minor
children, if any, a simple Will is a good option. In that event, kindly
complete the Will Preparation Questionnaire on the next page and we will
contact you to prepare your Will and arrange an appointment for its
signing.
On the other hand, if your objective is to control your property while
you are alive, take care of yourself and your loved ones if you become
disabled, give what you have, to whom you want, the way you want, when you
want and, if you can, save every last tax dollar, professional fee and
court cost possible, a Revocable Living Trust should be considered as part
of a complete estate plan.
In the event you would like to consider the many benefits of a
Revocable Living Trust, kindly review the Estate
Planning page.
