Will-Based Estate Plans

  • The foundation of every estate plan is a last will and testament. 
  • This document outlines your wishes and provides instructions concerning how you want your assets to be distributed when you pass away. 
  • It can also name a guardian for minor children and designate the individual who will be executor of your estate. 
  • A will-based estate plan does not include trusts and will go through the formal probate process. 
  • For some people, a will may be all they need, while others might benefit from using multiple estate planning tools. 
  • The will attorneys at Wagner Oehler, Ltd. can discuss the pros and cons of a will-based estate plan for your specific situation.
