Creating a will holds more significance than you may realize. Failing to establish one can have several disadvantages. If you are uncertain about whether to create a will, consider the following points:
-
- No designated executor: Without a will, your assets and plans may be at risk. Failing to choose an executor in advance can lead to complications, delays, additional expenses, and potential loss of property.
- Protection for your children: By not creating a will or trust, you jeopardize the well-being of your children. Without specifying a guardian, they may end up in foster care or under government care.
- Loss of control over your final wishes: Not having a will can deny you the opportunity to have a burial or funeral service according to your preferences.
- Inheritance issues: Without a will, your children may not receive their rightful inheritance or may face disputes over assets.
- Spousal inheritance concerns: Spouses do not automatically inherit property without a will. Considering your spouse’s living arrangements and financial well-being becomes crucial.
- Cost-effective planning: Creating a will is more affordable than dealing with disputes in court.
Preparing a will helps resolve conflicts and ensures your assets are distributed appropriately. It is advisable to establish a will early, regardless of age.
