Wills and Trusts with Stevenson | Smith | Hood | Knudson P.C. Attorneys At Law
One of the best things you can do for yourself and your loved ones is to create a will. Wills and trusts are designed to safeguard your family’s future. In a will, you are able to designate what will occur in the event of your death and how to effectively manage your estate.
A will is designed to be the foundation of the estate plan. This document will determine what will occur with your property when you pass away. Failure to have a will in place means the state could determine how your property is disbursed. A will allows you to appoint a personal representative (also known as Executor or Executrix) to handle your affairs following your death. Wills also include information on the care of your children if they minors.
To create a legal will, it is important to meet with a reputable and responsible attorney to create an effective estate plan. Planning an estate is one of the most rewarding things you can do. Contact our office in Ogden, UT to schedule a consultation to discuss your will and trust planning needs.
