Our Camas, WA wills lawyer can draft a sound will that clearly states your wishes, protecting your family and assets if the worst happens. Call NW Legacy Law today for a consultation.
Wills Lawyer Camas, WA
You may believe that you don’t have enough assets for a will to make a difference, but without a will, your loved ones may have more complications processing your estate after you pass away. Everyone has an estate, even if it’s a modest one: the sum of their assets, money, property, and debts. After you pass away, the estate must be processed through probate court, which legally transfers ownership of your assets to your legal heirs. Absent a will, the county probate judge appoints an estate administrator, who settles debts you may owe and disperses the remainder to your legal heirs, according to their relation to you and the laws contained in the Washington Estates Code.
This process can get complicated, and the outcome may be much different from what you would expect. Instead, trust our Camas wills lawyer to draft a will that meets your needs, protects those you love, and ensures that your family has guidance and knows your wishes. We get to know you first, so we can help you protect what matters most. Our legal team has decades of combined experience, and we collaborate with forensic accounting professionals to properly inventory your assets and determine who inherits what. We can also help you select a guardian for minor children and include that in the will, as well as your funeral and burial wishes. We’re here for you, working beside you to give you peace of mind.
