Will Preparation
Your Will is a document that expresses your preferences regarding how you wish to have your property and assets distributed after your death. More specifically, your Will decides how assets classified as probate assets (such as personal property and cash) are to be allocated. Nonprobate assets (such as financial investments and life insurance proceeds), on the other hand, are distributed outside of your Will. By selecting a personal representative (executor), your Will also permits you to choose who you wish to distribute your property and assets. If you have minor children, your Will allows you to select a guardian as well as create a testamentary trust for the benefit of your children.
