Will Drafting & Will Contests
Will Drafting Attorney – Columbus Ohio
Do you know how you would like your property to be distributed to your beneficiaries? Unless you are comfortable with the state making these important decisions — through Ohio’s intestate laws, the creation of a will is the only way for your wishes to be followed.
As an experienced will drafting attorney, I can provide detailed estate planning services to assist you with the formation of a last will & testament. Additionally, we can help family members resolve will contests and estate disputes.
Will Drafting: Simple & Complex
Without a will, the state will determine how assets are distributed to heirs. In most cases, this means that a spouse will receive 50% of the estate and the children each receive an equal share of the remaining 50% of the estate. In estates without children, the spouse typically receives 100% of the estate. If you have other wishes to distribute your assets, you definitely need to put it in writing and protect it in a will.
Whether your needs are complex (i.e., containing trusts and naming guardians for minor children) or you simply need to name beneficiaries for a small amount of assets, we can help draft your will.
