Will

A Will is a legal document that specifies an individual’s wishes for the distribution of their assets after their death. The document typically names an executor to manage the estate and beneficiaries to receive the assets. The Will can also include provisions for the care of minor children, the creation of trusts, and the donation of assets to charitable organizations. The Will must be signed and witnessed in accordance with state law to be legally valid. If an individual dies without a valid Will, their assets will be distributed according to state intestacy laws, which may not reflect their wishes. The Will is an important tool for ensuring that an individual’s assets are distributed according to their wishes and that their loved ones are provided for after their death.
