When drafting your last will and testament, it is critical to thoughtfully outline how to protect your legacy and provide for loved ones. As a leading Boise estate planning attorney, Gravis Law understands estate planning involves more than finances - it's about peace of mind and leaving a lasting legacy. Contact us today for assistance. Below are four tips for writing your will:
Catalog Your Possessions
First, inventory all your assets, including properties, investments, and other valuables. Being thorough allows you and your estate planning lawyer to make a comprehensive plan that distributes your assets according to your wishes.
Name Your Inheritors
Next, decide who will inherit your assets, whether family, friends, or charities. Clearly designate inheritors to avoid confusion or disputes.
Select an Executor
Choosing a trusted person to serve as executor is key. This individual will ensure your estate is distributed per your instructions and handle administrative tasks. An estate planning attorney can help you pick an appropriate executor.
Include Backup Plans
Your will should address unexpected events too. If any beneficiaries pass before you, or your chosen executor cannot serve, provide clear backup instructions.
