Last Will & Testament and More...
Do you have a Last Will & Testament?
Do you have a Last Will & Testament? Death is an event that is certain for all of us - and taxes they say. Drawing up a Last Will & Testament eases the administration of your affairs during a time of grief. Ensuring your assets pass to your Loved Ones true to your wishes is just one of the many reasons to have a Last Will & Testament in place along with other Advanced Care Documents. Not having a Will can cost your family time and money, and create financial uncertainly. If you have children, you certainly want to name a guardian of your choice to oversee their welfare, health and well-being after you are gone. To all of us, the thought of leaving this World is a scary proposition. But now is the time to think of preparing a Will, a Health Care Proxy, Power of Attorney and a Living Will in order that your personal wishes regarding your assets and medical-care can be carried out.
