A Will is a document under which a Will writer states his or her intentions regarding the persons or organizations ("Beneficiaries") who will receive the Will writer's property, and the person or organization ("Executor") who will carry out the Will writer's wishes. This Will is appropriate for a wide variety of individuals. It contains provisions for people who are married or single and will allow you to provide for your children, if any, of any age. If the Will writer's estate is expected to be larger than the federal estate tax applicable exclusion amount ($3,500,000), it may be desirable to use more complete estate planning techniques that are not provided by this document. For such cases, this Will can be used to prepare to work with a lawyer who can assist you with the preparation of a more complex will. Note: A separate will should be created for each person. Even for married couples, a "joint will" (not offered by this program) is not recommended. |
