Do I need a Last Will?

 

Last Will and Testament for Affordable Family Law ClientAt Affordable Family Law, we believe everyone over the age of 18 should have a Will and Testament. It can be a confusing process and we are here to explain everything. Historically, a will and testament specifically referred to the distribution of your real estate(will) and your personal affects(testament) after your death. However, the document now refers generally to the distribution of both. In addition to a Last Will and Testament, we recommend that you also designate a Health Care Directive & Living Will. You cannot express medical treatment in a Last Will and Testament in the event you are unable to communicate for yourself. Finally, we also recommend that you designate Power of Attorney for Financial Management. Designating a Power of Attorney assures that your legal, property, and financial matters will be handled correctly in case you become disabled or incompetent, or after your death.
