Do I need a will and when is the best time to make one?

A last will and testament is a legal document that determines the distribution of your assets and care for minor children after your passing. It's tough to think about making end-of-life decisions, but if you have assets you want control over when you're gone, you need a will. It is especially important to have a will to assign care of children. Without one, the state will decide how your assets are distributed. In Wisconsin, assets typically go to the spouse, and if there's no spouse, they go to children, then parents, and so on. You can update your will to reflect life changes and ensure that it meets all requirements by seeking the guidance of an experienced Wisconsin estate planning lawyer.
