Last will and testament

Your estate is made up of your possessions, wealth, and property. A last Will and Testament is the document that will dictate how your estate is distributed to your family. Your Will still has to go through the process of Probate where a Judge will ensure that your appointed guardian distributes your estate according to your Will and applicable laws. Without having a Will your estate will pass according to applicable state law and you loose control of who will be given pieces of your estate. In your Will you can also appoint guardians for your children, establish a special needs trust, dictate your wishes for burial and services, Take control of all the things you worked so hard for, contact Nappa Law LLC today to discuss and create your Last Will and Testament.
