Overview
A last will & testament provides for the transfer of your “estate” following your death. Your estate is everything you own – your house, car, savings, possessions, and more.
Your will allows you to gift these items as you see fit. Whatever is left over after you have made all your cash and specific item gifts, and paid all your debts and taxes, is called your “residuary estate”. This is often the largest part of your estate and is also specifically gifted to one or more people under your will.
You can also use your will to make funeral arrangements, appoint property guardians to oversee any inheritances received by minors, designate assets to be used in the payment of debts and taxes, and much more.
If you don’t make a will, the intestacy laws of your state will decide on how your property will be distributed after you die.
The last will and testament form on this web page is for use by someone who is either married or in a registered partnership, and who has adult children.
In this will, you can leave specific gifts and legacies to people, organizations and charities named in your will. Your residuary estate (whatever is left over after you make these gifts) is then gifted to your wife or partner. If she predeceases you, the residuary estate is divided equally among named alternate beneficiaries.
If you do not wish to leave your estate to your wife or partner, you can amend the provisions of your will or use one of the Last Will forms on this website for a person who is unmarried with no children.
This Last Will & Testament form is a downloadable form in Word format. It comes complete with guidance instructions on how to fill in the form, as well as a Self-Proving Affidavit.
** Recommendation: If you are not completely familiar with making a will, we recommend that you purchase our Legal Will Kit instead. The kit not only contains all the forms necessary for you to make a Last Will & Testament but also includes a detailed overview of all of the items you need to consider when making a will.
