Last Will and Testament and how to make the entire process simpler

Many individuals have always expressed their concern with the difficulty have having their Last Will and Testament prepared. Because of the cost and complications many individuals have actually been deterred from ever having their Will prepared. However there has been recently an advent of services that use technology to not only make the process much simpler but also to significantly reduce the costs. The main reason why you would need to prepare a Will is to not only designate your beneficiaries but to also avoid probate court. If you are not specific in your designation of beneficiaries and the assets those individuals are to receive then you will run the risk of your heirs incurring high legal costs in order to defend their right in court. With today’s technology all you need is to provide the attorney with the exact lists of the assets which you wish to leave and to which people you want to leave them to. This will enable the legal professional to prepare the legal document accurately which will encompass exactly your true intention. It is that true intention that the courts will look at when they try to determine if the Will is actually valid. Should it not clearly express your intent then the court will be given the responsibility of determining based on the facts and circumstances of the case who is to receive what. Thus, it is especially important to provide all the information in detailed form to the attorney so that they can properly prepare your Will. Once the legal document is created you really do not have to do anything else with it unless you desire to make some changes to it. At that point you will need to contact the person who created it for you and they will be able to advise you on how to make the changes to better reflect your desire.
