FAQs About Wills and Estates
Why should I have a professionally drafted will?
A professionally written will makes your wishes clear. It guides the law to follow your instructions. This helps avoid delays and confusion when you pass away. It also lowers the chance of family disagreements. Your property will go to the people you want.
What happens if you die without a will?
The law will decide who receives your assets.This is called dying intestate. The result might not match your wishes. Some family members could be left out or face money problems.
How often do I need to update my will?
Look over your will every few years. Update it after big life changes like marriage, divorce, having a child, or buying a home. This keeps it up to date with your life.
Can I name more than one executor?
Yes, you can choose multiple executors. They share the work of handling your estate. If one cannot act, another can step in.
What does an estate planning lawyer do?
An estate planning lawyer gives advice based on your needs. They help write wills, set up trusts, and plan for taxes. Their job is to make your plan clear and reduce problems.
What is the difference between a will and an enduring power of attorney?
A will only works after you die. It tells how to handle your estate. An enduring power of attorney works while you are alive. It lets someone you trust make decisions if you cannot.
Can I exclude someone from my will?
Yes, you can leave someone out. But close family like spouses or children might challenge this in court. It is best to get legal advice before doing this.
How can you make sure your estate plan helps future generations?
You can set up your estate to support your family for many years. This can include trusts or ways to save on taxes. Our wills and estate lawyers can help you build a plan. This protects your assets and helps your loved ones.
