When it comes to ensuring that your family is taken care of after you die, wills and probate are two important considerations. Will provide a legal framework for distributing your assets after you pass away, and having one in place can ensure that your wishes are followed. Probate is the process by which the court oversees the distribution of a deceased person’s assets, making sure that all legal requirements are followed.

Having a will is the best way to ensure that your family is provided for after you pass away. With a will, you can specify who inherits your assets and how they should be distributed. You can also appoint an executor to handle the process of administering your estate and make sure all of your wishes are followed.

In order to ensure that your will is legally binding, it must meet certain requirements. It must be in writing and signed by you or another person with proper legal authority, and witnessed by two individuals who can attest to the validity of the will. Additionally, a will may need to be notarized depending on the state in which you reside. Northwest Strategy and Planning can help guide you through this difficult process and ensure that everything is done properly and efficiently.
