Your wife/partner, and your family put their trust in you to protect them from all adversity on an on-going basis, with no questions asked . And with your always busy schedule, you always recognize some things you are never able to quite get done.
It seems that getting around to sitting down with your wife/partner to talk about the necessity of getting your Will drafted is one of those missed opportunities?
Did you know that more than 80 out of a 100 citizens do not have a formal Will? And did you know that the less than 20 who have/had a Will, that it cannot be found when needed?
When a person dies without a written Will, the government of the country in which they live, may decide what will happen to their estate. If they have minor children, that government may also decide who will care for them without influence from any family? Worse yet, without a clear directive of final wishes like that specified in a written Will, many families are split apart fighting over their loved one’s estate. It can be assumed that no family wants to leave that kind of legacy for their loved one’s.
The TV headlines of contested Wills of Howard Hughes, Jim Brown, Micheal Jackson, Brooke Astor are prime examples.
There is nothing expensive, complicated nor time consuming about completing a Will, and one can’t put a price tag on the peace and comfort it brings to the family.
SO _ _ _ Assume that trust your family puts in you.
TODAY _ _ _ with your wife/partner, TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR FAMILIES FUTURE !

Wills
Knowing that you and your spouse have taken the necessary steps to put your Will information in motion for your lawyer, notary or financial planner.
YOU _ _ _ can begin that walk at this moment as you read this.
Too many people wake up one morning and realize that they MUST, and WILL cease procrastinating and relieve themselves of that constant gnawing feeling that they have not as yet addressed their important task of sitting down with their wife/partner to finally take care of this must-be-done responsibility to protect their assets and family members..
Much guidance and direction is available free on-line to help families assemble the information they will need to complete the details to then be given to their lawyer, notary, financial planner or whatever professional they will use to insure that they end up with the proper legal document that will withstand any court challenge. A LEGAL WILL !
The ball will remain in their hands until they DO something with it. For the sake of their family, DON’T let it be DROPPED !
Eliminate that Horrible Feeling that there is something you have forgot to do ?

How do we go about accumalating the required material to prepare our Will. ? Marriage license, dinorce papers, stock and bond records, birth certificates for parents and children, names and addresses of next of kin, mortgage records, our selection of who we will choose as our Executor/Executrix, and the list seems endless _ _ _ ?
Easy _ _ _ ? Follow a simple plan, ( like an airline pilot who files a flight plan before any flight he takes ), to secure and find all the material you will no doubt want. You could call it your flight plan to your Will preparation.
Like thousands of airline pilots daily, they set out a flight plan for their flight before they take off, and once airborne, they easily follow it to get to their destination thru rain, snow, clouds, and darkness to arrive at their destination safely.
