A Will is a legal document that outlines how a person’s assets and affairs should be handled after their passing. It allows you to designate beneficiaries, appoint an executor, and specify guardians for minor children. In California, having a Will helps ensure your wishes are legally recognized, prevents disputes among heirs, and streamlines the probate process. Without a Will, state laws determine how your estate is distributed, which may not align with your intentions. A properly drafted Will provides peace of mind, protects loved ones, and can minimize legal complications.
