There are very few instances in which a person doesn’t need a last will and testament. Even if you have no family, what would you want to happen to your assets? If you have a pet, who will care for it? Without a will, the estate of the deceased is usually put on hold until a judge can decide who will get what. This process is often lengthy and costly, eating up any estate that you could have donated to go towards court fees. If you are married, have children (even if they are grown and self-sustaining), outstanding debts, assets, etc. you need a detailed last will and testament.
If you have recently had a major life change, such as a divorce or remarriage, then your last will and testament will need to be updated to include those changes. Should you inherit any heirlooms or purchase something valuable, you will want a clear will as to who will receive those items.
