Will - Blind or Illiterate Person
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) first instructs the executor (also known as the trustee) to distribute specific property to specified recipients (also known as the beneficiaries) (e.g. daughter will receive family jewelry). The remainder, after the testator’s debts are paid off, (referred to as the residue) will then be distributed equally to named beneficiaries of the testator’s 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 special signing provisions if the testator is blind or illiterate.
