Wills
A will (or ‘testament’) is a legal document by which a person, the testator, expresses their wishes as to how their property is to be distributed at death, and names one or more persons, the executor, to manage the estate until its final distribution.
Estate Planning
Estate planning law refers to the drafting of living wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and other documents to facilitate the transfer and management of the property after death. This area also involves the preparation of tasks that serve to manage an individual’s assets in the event of their incapacitation or death.
