WILLS

Your Will is one of the most important documents in your estate planning portfolio. A Will provides instructions to the ones you leave behind regarding how you want your assets distributed and debts paid upon your death. The sooner you make a Will, the better! Existing Wills should be reviewed occasionally to see if they need to be revised, especially after a significant life event such as marriage, divorce, or death of a spouse.

When you hire Hembree Bell Law Firm to draft your Will,
we will include provisions regarding:

  • Your personal representative or executor. This is the person who will lead the charge and make sure your will is carried out as written.

  • Beneficiaries for specific property. You should explain in detail who will receive certain assets, including cash, real estate, and personal property.

  • Alternate beneficiaries. Life is unpredictable. It is wise to have back-up beneficiaries in case one of your primary beneficiaries does not survive you.

  • How business assets will be allocated. If you own a business, those assets are separate from your personal assets. You should establish a plan for how the business will be passed on or dissolved.

  • How debts and taxes will be paid. Upon your death, your loved ones will incur final expenses – such as funeral and probate costs – and you may leave behind unpaid debts. Be sure to leave instructions on how those debts will be paid.

  • The care of your pets. If you have a pet, you can include a provision that names a caretaker for your furry friend.

Trusts

A trust is another important type of estate planning tool. By establishing and funding a trust, you can leave behind assets for specific beneficiaries. Many people establish a trust to financially support their loved ones – often children – or to give to their favorite charities upon their death.

Hembree Bell Law can help you establish and fund many kinds of trusts, including:

  • Revocable living trusts

  • Irrevocable living trusts

  • Special needs trusts

  • Family trusts

  • Life insurance trusts
