Wills
A Will is the cornerstone of your estate plan. It is the way that you can direct how your property will be distributed upon your death and who will be responsible for handling your affairs. A Will allows you to set forth your intentions with respect to these important decisions. If you die without a Will, you have no control over who will serve these important roles.

A will is a writing signed at the end by a person (at least 18 years of age and of sound mind) that directs the distribution of property at death. The will may also appoint guardians of the estates of minors who receive property under the will. This provides information on who should have a will and why.
