Walnut Creek Wills Attorney
Experienced Estate Lawyer preparing Comprehensive Wills for Clients Throughout Contra Costa County, California
A will serves many purposes. It names a trusted person to handle the transfer of the estate and directs the transfer. It can appoint a guardian, should children or vulnerable adults be left behind. Narrative text can express feelings and final communications. Finally, you can avoid any confusion or disputes by clarifying the status of a former spouse or step-children. Even if you have a trust, you still need a will.
