Will - Made in Contemplation of Marriage
Creating a Last Will & Testament is a key part of financial planning, no matter how young or healthy you may be. It's essential to plan for the future of your survivors, and a Will is the most important legal document you can create to ensure that they won't be entangled in a lengthy probate process.
This Will is specifically designed for the situation where the testator (the person making the will) instructs the executor (also known as the trustee) to distribute the testators estate, after the testators debts are paid off to named beneficiaries of the testators choosing. This Will also provides that if a beneficiary is not yet the age of majority, the executor (trustee) will hold and invest the money in trust for the beneficiary until he/she reaches the age of majority.
In addition, this Will includes a special provision where the testator states that this is Will whether or not he dies before marriage to his fiancé.
