No matter your age or the size of your estate, having a valid will in place can be extremely beneficial both to yourself and your loved ones. If you pass away with a valid or legal will, the state of Massachusetts will distribute your assets and property in accordance with their laws rather than your desires, increasing the chances for your assets to be passed on to individuals you had no intention of naming as heir. Thankfully, a Boston wills lawyer can ensure you have a valid will.
In addition to establishing a will as part of your overall estate plan, you may wish to modify an already existing will to reflect any new life changes or changes in the circumstances of certain beneficiaries of your will. At Albanese Law, LLC our team of talented estate planning attorneys can come alongside you and your loved ones in both the creation and establishment of a legal and valid will and guide you through any necessary changes to your will that might arise.
A will can be absolutely vital to ensure that your desires are carried out following your death. It can also help protect your legacy and your loved ones for generations to come. A well-crafted will can outline your assets and how you wish for them to be distributed, which can help reduce any potential disputes that may arise between family members and can also help avoid any complications from Massachusetts intestacy laws in which the state will decide how your assets are divided.
This legal document can also allow you to name guardians for minor or incapacitated adult children and ensure their care is with trusted individuals. Having a will offers you the peace of mind that comes with knowing your personal and monetary wishes, along with the wishes regarding your family, are provided for and that stability and a clear path moving forward are offered to your loved ones in a difficult time.
There are several key components to a valid and inclusive will that can help ensure your estate will be handled according to your desires after your death. These components can include:
