Wills Lawyer in Bedford, Indiana (Free Consultation)

A Will is more than just a legal document that directs the distribution of a deceased person’s assets. Wills also identify estate administrators and set up guardians for minor children.

Writing a will is the best way to care for your loved ones long after you're gone.

However, writing a will without a skilled attorney could have serious consequences:

The Will may not be legally binding.
Your assets may be passed down to the wrong people.
Not including necessary legal language could put the document at risk of misinterpretation.
Uninventoried items could be wrongly distributed.
You loved ones may not be cared for the way you want.

Grant Law will help you develop a comprehensive Will that ensures the people you care about are protected and provided for according to your wishes.

What happens if a person dies without a will?

When a person passes away without a Will, they are considered "intestate." In this case, Indiana inheritance laws determine who receives their personal and real property. Indiana’s rules usually exclude non-married partners and close friends from receiving property.

Healthcare Directives

Another aspect which needs serious consideration are Healthcare Directives. This is a legal document that allows you to name a person to advocate for your needs if you become incapacitated and unable to provide direction.

Having Healthcare Directives is one way to ensure your wishes are followed, and you have a trusted person as your advocate and agent.
