What is a Will?
A will is a legal document that details how a person's assets and properties will be distributed after their death. This legal document can also specify custody and guardianship details for the surviving children.
To complete your will, you should have a clear idea about what you want to happen to your financial and real estate assets. You should have personal information for the parties that will be receiving these assets in the event of your death. If you have the information you need, you can create a will without a lawyer's assistance.
When is a Will needed?
If you are a legal adult, you need a will. Dying without a will is known in the legal world as dying "intestate". Essentially, if you have not made your wishes known and legally binding through a will, provincial legislation will dictate how your property is divided. In extreme instances, everything you own could become the provincial government's property, simply because there was no legally binding will at the time of death.
