How Can a Las Vegas Will Preparation Attorney Help Me?
No two people are just alike, so you should not follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach when it comes to drafting a will. A Las Vegas will preparation attorney is knowledgeable about the laws specific to Nevada and can help you put together an estate strategy that aligns with your goals. You should consider hiring a will preparation attorney who can help you by:
- Understanding your needs and goals
- Helping you identify all assets and details that need to be included in a will
- Giving you sound legal advice for your estate planning options
- Drafting a will and other estate planning documents that align with Nevada law
While a lawyer may not necessarily be required to prepare a will, it is always a good idea to get help from an experienced lawyer when you need it.
Overview of Preparing a Will in Nevada
Before preparing a will, you will want to have a good understanding and inventory of all your assets. Most will preparation lawyers have detailed questionnaires they ask clients to complete. This helps the lawyer understand your current situation and offer advice on the best way to accomplish your goals. Once you decide how you want your assets to be distributed, you can go ahead and create the will. Remember, Nevada law requires a valid will to be:
- In writing
- Signed by the testator (the person creating the will) or signed at their express direction
- Attested and signed by two competent witnesses
Once your will has been prepared, it should be stored in a safe place. The person you decide to name as your executor or someone else named in the will should have access to the document. When you pass away, they will need to obtain the will so that they can submit it to the probate court to begin the administration of the estate.
