Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I die without a will?
If you die without a will (intestate), state laws will determine how your assets are distributed, which may not align with your wishes. The court will also decide who cares for your minor children.
How often should I update my will?
You should review your will every 3-5 years or after major life events such as marriage, divorce, birth of a child, or significant changes in your financial situation.
Can I write my own will?
While it's possible to create your own will, working with an attorney ensures it meets all legal requirements and properly addresses your specific situation, reducing the risk of disputes or challenges.
