What is a will?

A will is a legal document that outlines how you would like your assets to be distributed after you pass away. It also includes instructions on how you would like to be cared for and who should take care of your children or pets. It can provide you with peace of mind knowing that your wishes will be respected and your family will be taken care of when you're gone. When creating a will, you assign an executor to carry out the terms and oversee the probate process, ensuring that your wishes are respected.
