Wills

A will is a legal document that outlines how a person's assets and belongings should be distributed after their death. It appoints an executor to manage the process and can specify guardians for any minor children. Wills help ensure that a person's wishes are honored, minimize disputes among potential heirs, and can simplify the legal process. Without a will, the state laws determine asset distribution, which may not align with the deceased's intentions. It’s advisable to review and update a will regularly to reflect changes in personal circumstances.
