Regarding wills, there are terms you need to familiarize yourself with.
The process of creating and establishing a will is a difficult one for most people.

Here at Bennett Guthrie PLLC, we are here to help you with all your needs, questions and concerns regarding creating or executing your will or wills. Many people are only interested in allocating their assets in wills, but there are a few legal terms to be familiar with when creating wills.
- Living Will– A living will is one of the wills that every person should have. Living wills give advanced directives on how you would like to be cared for, procedures to allow, and life-saving measures to be taken in case of a debilitating problem that leaves you in a coma or vegetative state.
- Last Will & Testament– Your last will and testament gives directions upon how you would like your estate cared for and distributed and allows for custody inclusions of minors upon your death.
- Estate Planning– This is the process during which you meet with an estate planning attorney to create your will(s) and other estate documents.
- Will Attorney– A will attorney is an attorney you require when creating or contesting any legal matter concerning wills or estate law.
