Will Lawyer Coventry, RI
A will is the foundation of your overall estate plan. It details the extent of your assets (money, property, real estate, retirement accounts, etc.), and lists the people, your heirs, that you want to inherit. We review the law governing the legal transfer of a decedent’s property to their heirs, and advise you on whether your plans are possible. For example, you cannot fully disinherit a spouse in Rhode Island, but you may be able to disinherit a child (as long as there are no outstanding child support obligations). We can also explain what you can do with your will, including charitable bequests.
Your will outlines your funeral and burial wishes, too. And, if you have minor children and their other parent is deceased or otherwise not an option as a legal guardian after you pass away, you can name a guardian for them in your will. For example, if you remarried and you want your child’s step-parent to raise them if you predecease your spouse, you must state that in your will; otherwise, unless the step-parent has adopted your child, they may not be the guardian assigned by the court.
Our Coventry will lawyer drafts a will according to your wishes, so you can take care of the people you love most. And, when life changes, and your relationships change, we can revise your will to better reflect your changed obligations.
Our Legal Experience Matters When Drafting A Sound Will
