Last Will and Testament
Do You Have a Current Will That Reflects Your Wishes?
A will is a legal document detailing the wishes of an individual regarding the distribution of their real estate, investments, and other assets upon death. Creating a legal last will and testament lends peace of mind knowing that their assets will be allocated as they see fit, and not left to a complicated, time-consuming, and costly probate process. While a standard will may not be that difficult to create, it still makes sense to discuss your situation with an experienced Naples estate planning attorney. Your lawyer will ensure that the will is legally binding in addition to providing guidance on all aspects of your estate.
A well-documented will can address virtually any need or wish that someone may have in death. While typically known to include instructions related to the distribution of valuable assets and property, a will can have additional benefits such as providing instructions for guardianship of minors or disabled dependents. An important distinction should be made between a living will and a last will and testament. Living wills provide instruction to healthcare professionals in the event that the individual is unable to give consent.

"Thank you, Ed Wollman and Team."Ed Wollman had been my father's attorney for years and reviewed his documents with him faithfully every five years. Before my dad went into Hospice, Ed and his team were a great source of information and comfort during a difficult time. After his passing it was made easier navigating closing the estate with his team and words of encouragement. The value of knowing that everything was handled in the courts was a huge relief. Thank you, Ed Wollman and Team.- Lilla P.
