A will is a document that provides instructions on how you want your  property distributed after the time of your death. . Why do I need a Will?

• To leave instructions on how you want your estate distributed or who will receive your property.

• To designate who will raise your children if you die while they are still minors and your spouse is unavailable to care for them.

• If you have children from a previous marriage and would like to protect their interests.

• To make specific gifts to family and friends who survive you.

• To conserve your estate resources and avoid extra probate costs and attorney fees.

• To reduce the possibility of disputes between heirs.

• To designate a personal representative, someone to pay your bills and taxes and distribute your estate to the appropriate beneficiaries.

• To give your family peace of mind.
