Do you have a will? When was the last time it was updated? If you don’t remember, you could be in trouble.
Just read the newspapers to see what happens when people die without an up-to-date will. Maggie explains that Heath Ledger is the latest example.
A will is an incredibly simple document for most people. And many attorneys provide small estate planning for a really affordable price. It takes only a few minutes to explain your desires to your lawyer. Then he can draft a will for you. Signing the will requires some formalities, but the ceremony doesn’t take long.
Your children, spouse, and other family members deserve the protection that an updated will provides. If yours is old, get that fixed today.
