Why You Need A Will In Tennessee
Without a valid will, Tennessee intestacy laws determine how to distribute your property. These laws follow a strict formula, distributing assets to your spouse, children, grandchildren, parents and siblings in a predetermined order.
A properly drafted will allows you to decide exactly how your assets will be distributed and who will be responsible for carrying out your wishes.
What Your Will Should Address
A comprehensive will should cover both your assets and responsibilities. This includes your home, real estate holdings, bank accounts, investments, business interests and valuable personal property like vehicles, art or jewelry. Your will should also address outstanding debts such as mortgages, loans and credit card balances.
Additional Considerations For Your Will
Your will can do more than distribute property. Through this document, you can name an executor to manage your estate, designate guardians for minor children and establish trusts for family members or charitable organizations.
You can also make provisions for the care of your pets and create specific instructions for family heirlooms or sentimental items.
