Testator
A testator is a person who creates a will, which is a legal document that outlines how their assets and affairs should be handled after their death. By being a testator, they express their wishes regarding the distribution of their property, guardianship of dependents, and other important matters. This process ensures that their intentions are respected and that their loved ones are provided for according to their desires. The will only takes effect upon the testator's passing, at which point it is executed according to the laws governing wills and estates.
