Wills

   Wills provide a legal mechanism for disposing of property upon death in a way that recognizes your wishes and the needs of your survivors.  Through a will you can choose a guardian for your minor children or pets, or you can specify that particular items of personal property be given to specific people.  A will allows you to direct the details of your funeral and burial; how, by whom, or on what things your money may be spent; who may be in charge of making sure your directions are carried out; at what age your children can receive your gift to them; and how it should be manage until that time. 

  Decisions you make now may also impact your estate's tax position after you pass away.  The time to set up a will is before that happens.
