What Is a Last Will & Testament?
A Last Will & Testament is a legally binding document that directs how your assets will be distributed after your death and names guardians for minor children. California law governs the execution and enforcement of this document, including specific requirements for witnesses, notarization, and filing.
Without a properly executed Last Will & Testament, your estate passes by state intestacy laws — which may not reflect your wishes and can lead to family conflict. LexDraftVault generates a complete document tailored to your specific situation — the same quality you'd get from a law firm, in seconds, for free.
