How To Write Your Will

By Saber A. Muslim

I was speaking with a woman about a month ago; she was looking for coverage for her final expenses. When we met she was in her front yard tending her snake, hydrangeas, ferns and spider plants, and as we conversed she told me she transplants at least once per year because she uses fertilizer to help her plants grow.

Widowed with grown children living and working away from home; she owns her small home; mortgage completed, and a small car. Middle-aged and in good health; I discovered that my new acquaintance surprisingly, however, is not unlike many Americans. She does not have a will.

According to a FindLaw.com survey conducted June of 2008; nearly 60 percent of Americans do not have a will. Although more than half of the persons surveyed aged 50 or older had a will, that percentage declined to 25 percent of persons with a will aged 25 to 34. Persons in the survey between the ages of 18 and 24, those with a will is less than ten percent.

Very few of us spend our daily lives thinking about death. Even fewer think about what it is we would like to leave our children, or our loved ones. In talking with people about their final expenses; if they have thought about the cost of a funeral, they have not thought about what happens after they have left us.

A sobering, but necessary thought. I have found that the younger my acquaintance is, the less chance there is that the words “death,” and “will” are in their vocabulary.

So, if you say you don’t have a will, my immediate question is “why not?” I was told by one person, “Well, I don’t own anything, what do I need a will for?” Well, if you are a home owner, or you are a business owner; a will is not only prudent, but necessary, especially if your financial empire has residual income.

If you die without a will, do you realize what could happen to your car, your clothes, your family photo album? Your business? To pass away without a will, that is to die “intestate,” puts your spouse and/or family in jeopardy of having your state laws determine who gets what.

If you have a will, when is the last time you updated it? Not since the day you wrote it?

Go get it now and let’s have a look.

A will is a basic component of your estate planning. Among other things, it specifies how your assets will be distributed after you pass away, and who will receive them. Without a will, the laws of the state and the decisions of a probate court may determine how your estate is distributed, who will care for your children if they are minors, and so forth.

Your last Will & Testament is one of the most important legal documents in your life. If you don’t have a will because you feel that you don’t own anything, make a list of your bank accounts; investments; real property; personal property, such as your 2010 Buick Lacrosse, or your ’56 Chevy; your rifle collection; fishing and hunting gear and mounts.

Ladies, what about that 14k-gold necklace; diamond-studded ring; a stamp collection; a Singer sewing machine that still works; or that broach you were given by your mother or grandmother? Guys, were you given your grandfather’s diamond-studded retirement watch when you were a child? What about those family photos of your great-grandparents; that baseball card collection that features a Jackie Robinson rookie card; or those savings bonds that have matured and are kept in a safety deposit box?

A will is a legal document that guides and designates when, where, and how your estate is settled and distributed according to your wishes. It can prevent arguments after your death. A will is not required by federal or state law; but if you don’t want your estate to visit probate court you’ll want to complete a legal and valid will, otherwise the state laws will determine who gets what based on family hierarchy, which may not be what you wanted.

As a home and/or business owner this should be done as soon as possible; a will and estate planning now will help spare your loved ones from the additional responsibilities of the distribution of your estate after you have left us; especially when your survivors should not be expected or be able to make some difficult decisions.

There are many options available when drafting a will. It is prudent to consult an attorney who specializes in estate planning to be sure that your will is compliant with current state tax codes and laws. Basic pre-printed and ready to fill-in wills are available; but these type wills are not customizable. Your own properly drafted will gives you the flexibility you need.

If you do have a will, you should review it at least every five years as circumstances and people around you and your life changes. Just as the Policy-owner in your life insurance plan, there may be cause or a need to change beneficiary or beneficiaries. Updates become necessary when there are life changing events: the birth of a child, or grandchild; a marriage; divorce; the acquisition or selling of real estate property or personal property; stocks; bonds; certificates of deposits; IRA’s and 401 K’s; or life insurance policies and annuities you may own, surrender or sell. If you want to give certain gifts or designate certain pieces of property you own; or simply if your overall financial state changes.

These changes require formalities that must be done correctly in order to make your changes valid and applicable under current law. You cannot cross out a word or a phrase and make new notes in handwriting on the margin on the side; this places your will in jeopardy. Minor changes can be made with a Codicil, which is a legal document designed to modify an earlier will. Major changes, however, would require revoking the old will and writing a new one. Neutral, non-beneficiary witnesses are necessary to these major changes as well. Number, sign and date every page of your will. A properly prepared will protects you and your wishes in a Court of Law; the Judge knows that there were no changes made to your will after your death by someone with ulterior motives who wrote in a change by hand, and either added or removed pages in your will.

When will you start preparing your will? Protect your investment; leave a legacy.

My darling Michael, I know this letter will come as a shock to you…. On the anniversary of his beloved wife's death, Dr. Michael Everett receives a letter Hannah had written him.

And to that end she's chosen three women she asks him to consider. First on Hannah's list is Winter Adams, who owns a cafe on Seattle's Blossom Street. The second is Leanne Lancaster, Hannah's oncology nurse. Michael knows them both. But the third name is one he's not familiar with–Macy Roth. Each woman has her own heartache, her own private grief. During the months that follow, he spends time with Winter, Leanne and Macy, learning more about each of them…and about himself. He's a man who needs the completeness only love can offer.

Murder List


Murder List


$6.29


There are few authors who can weave nail-biting thrills, edge-of-your-seat drama, and romantic suspense as masterfully as Julie Garwood. Now she ratchets up the tension with Murder List , in which evil is on the hunt- and proves to be methodically organized and chillingly successful. When Chicago detective Alec Buchanan is offered a prime position with the FBI, it is the perfect opportunity to leave the Windy City and follow in his brothers’ footsteps to the top echelons of law enforcement. But first he must complete one last assignment (and one that he is not too happy about): acting as a glorified bodyguard to hotel heiress Regan Hamilton Madison. The gorgeous exec has become entangled in some potentially deadly business. Someone has e-mailed her a graphic crime-scene photo-and the victim is no stranger. Regan suspects that the trouble started when she agreed to help a journalist friend expose a shady self-help guru who preys on lonely, vulnerable women. In fact, the smooth-as-an-oil-slick Dr. Lawrence Shields may be responsible for the death of one of his devotees, which was ruled a suicide. Hoping to find some damning evidence, Regan attends a Shields seminar. At the gathering, the doctor persuades his guests to partake in an innocent little "cleansing" exercise. He asks them to make a list of the people who have hurt or deceived them over the years, posing the question: Would your world be a better place if these people ceased to exist? Treating the exercise as a game, Regan plays along. After ten minutes, Shields instructs the participants to bring their sheets of paper to the fireplace and throw them into the flames. But Regan misses this part of the program when she exits the room to take a call-and barely escapes a menacing individual in the parking lot. The experience is all but forgotten-until the first person on Regan’s list turns up dead. Shock turns to horror when other bodies from the list start to surface, as a harrowing tango of desire and death is set into motion. Now brutal murders seem to stalk her every move-and a growing attraction to Alec may compromise her safety, while stirring up tender emotions she thought she could no longer feel. Yet as the danger intensifies and a serial killer circles ever closer, Regan must discover who has turned her private revenge fantasies into grisly reality. From the Hardcover edition.
