Welcome back to Wills Wednesday! This Wednesday's fact is a surprising one.... A Will does not need to be dated in order to be valid. It is, however, good practice to date a Will, so that you know which one was the last Will executed! #WillsWednesday #Facts #WillFacts #WillsandTrusts #TrustsandEstates #PrivateClientSolicitor #PrivateClient #ThorntonJonesSolicitors #Solicitors #LeedsSolicitors #WakefieldSolicitors #YorkshireSolicitors #Garforth #Wakefield #SherburnInElmet #Ossett #Mapplewell #Leeds

We've come a long way in estate planning since colonial times when it was dictated that the oldest son would inherit the entire estate of a deceased landowner. This practice ensured the continuity of land ownership within families and was prevalent throughout the colonies. But now, you can set up your estate plan to leave your land and other assets to whomever you want- especially if your daughter is more stable than your oldest son! #asyouwish #estateplanning #choosewisely #assetprotection #elderlaw

Intestacy is the default estate plan created by state statute. If you fail to sign a valid will prior to your passing, your state's intestacy statute becomes your default estate plan and will ultimately determine how your estate will be distributed. The estate distribution dictated by the statute is based upon what the state assumes you would want to happen to your assets, since you failed to leave any instructions. It does not change based on your actual needs, preferences or family. See more below https://lnkd.in/eG9fiRjr #estateplanning #probate #livingwill
