Frequently Asked Questions

A Last Will and Testament is a legal document that outlines how a person's assets and responsibilities will be handled after their death. It specifies beneficiaries, appoints guardians for minor children, and can establish trusts.

Having a Will is crucial for parents with minor children as it allows them to designate guardians for their children and ensure that their assets are distributed according to their wishes, rather than leaving it to the state.

If you die without a Will, your assets will be distributed according to New Hampshire's intestacy laws. This may not align with your wishes and can lead to complications for your family.

Yes, you can change your Will at any time by creating a new Will or adding a codicil, which is an amendment to the existing Will. It's important to follow legal requirements to ensure the changes are valid.

A Trust for minor children is a legal arrangement that holds and manages assets on behalf of children until they reach a specified age. It ensures that the assets are used for their benefit and are protected from mismanagement.

You can appoint anyone you trust as a Guardian for your children in your Will. This person should be someone who shares your values and is willing to take on the responsibility of caring for your children.

The costs can vary depending on whether you use an attorney or a self-service option. Generally, attorney fees may range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, while DIY options can be more affordable.

A Will created in New Hampshire is generally valid in other states, but it's advisable to review and possibly update it according to the laws of your new state to ensure compliance and effectiveness.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are married with minor children often need a Will to ensure their children's future is secure in the event of their passing. This document outlines how their assets will be distributed and who will care for their children, providing peace of mind.
  • Situations requiring a clear plan for asset distribution arise when one spouse passes away. In such cases, this Will can establish a Trust for minor children, ensuring that their inheritance is managed appropriately until they reach adulthood.
  • For those with an estate valued under $2,000,000, this Will is a practical solution to avoid lengthy probate processes. It allows for the swift transfer of assets to survivors, minimizing stress during an already difficult time.
  • Families facing the possibility of one parent predeceasing the other can benefit from this Will, as it includes provisions for appointing a Guardian for minor children. This ensures that children are cared for by someone the parents trust.
  • Couples who want to make specific gifts to family members or friends alongside their estate can utilize this Will. It provides a structured way to express their wishes and distribute their assets according to their preferences.

Do Not Use If:

  • This form is not appropriate for individuals without minor children, as the provisions for guardianship and trusts are specifically designed for their needs. If there are no dependents, a simpler Will may suffice.
  • Situations involving complex estates or significant assets may require specialized legal advice and a more tailored estate plan. In such cases, consulting an attorney is recommended rather than using a standard form.
  • If the Testator has specific wishes that do not align with the provisions of this Will, such as unique asset distribution or unconventional guardianship arrangements, a custom Will may be necessary.
  • This form is not suitable for individuals who are unmarried or in a domestic partnership without legal recognition, as the provisions are tailored for married couples. Alternative forms should be considered.
  • For those facing legal disputes or potential challenges to their estate, this standard Will may not provide adequate protection. Legal counsel should be sought to address these complexities.
