Last Will And Testament Forms and The Truth About Wills and Probate

Which of these applies to you?
- You are going on a trip and want to enjoy it without the worry of "what if ... occurs".
- You are going in the hospital and want to provide for your loved ones, just in case...
- You have seen first hand the problems caused when someone dies without a Will, and you want to save your loved ones from the same problems.
- You simply want the comfort, confidence, and peace of mind that comes with knowing (1) who will receive your property, (2) who will raise your minor children, (3) who will handle money left to your minor children, and (4) who will handle your estate and settle your affairs when you die.
If any one of these applies to you, you need two things: (1) Information, and (2) a Last Will And Testament, commonly called a Will. Information tells you what is and is not covered by your Will and how state laws override Wills. With information, you can make an intelligent Will. On the other hand, your Last Will And Testament tells your heirs what you want done with the property and matters that you can control at your death. "Learn The Truth About Wills"
So that you will know why I can make these statements, let me explain who I am. My name is Steve Bingman. I am a lawyer and I practice law in Spartanburg, South Carolina. My practice is mainly probate and real estate. Over 19 years, I have had the privilege to prepare a ton of Last Will and Testaments and answer all kinds of questions. I have also observed that most people do not know that state laws may override part their of Will. Unfortunately, since they do not know about state laws, they do not know enough to even ask about how state laws affect their Will. And they're surprised when they find out.
That's the problem. Part of your Will may not be effective because of state laws.
The truth is that a Will does not cover everything. Your Last Will And Testament is important. It is the cornerstone. But every state has a number of different laws that override Wills, including overriding your Last Will And Testament. Here are 2 examples:
Some states have laws that give money in a joint bank account (two or more people) to the survivor regardless of what the deceased person's Last Will and Testament said. Normally, this is not a problem. But if you have a joint account with one child when you have several children, at your death, the one child gets the money and the other children get nothing from the bank account.
For another example, some states have laws that when a married person recevies real estate, the real estate goes to both the Husband and Wife jointly. Again, this is normally not a problem. But it could be. When my Dad made his Will, he thought that he was giving his home to my Sisters and me. However, his state laws said that my Sister's Husbands and my Wife shared equally with my Sisters and me. It was not a problem because we all get along very well. But, what if we didn't get along?
The fact is that every state has a number of different laws that override Last Will and Testaments. These are just two examples. Also, these two examples stated above are not isolated and unique to South Carolina. In fact, my Dad lived in another state. Before you make your Will, it is critically important that you know and understand that state laws override certain parts of your Will.
Please understand that the purpose of state laws is to provide an orderly process of distributing the property of a deceased person, not to cheat you or to take away your property. The problem is that state laws are like trying to have a "one size fits all" shoe. For some people, the shoe is OK. But, for others, it is all wrong because the shoe might be too tight or too loose. State laws may be what you need and want, but they also may not be.
The Solution: Learn what Last Will and Testaments cover and do not cover.
The Truth About Wills and Probate is an ebook that was written to explain what laws to look out for and to explain what you can and cannot change. Abraham Lincoln once said: "Lord, give me the courage to change that which I can change, the tranquility to accept that which I cannot change, and the wisdom to know the difference between the two". The Truth About Wills and Probate gives you the knowledge and wisdom to know what you can and cannot change. It gives you the peace of mind and confidence that comes from knowing who will receive your property and who will have custody of your minor children when you die.

You can then either read them on your computer or you can print them and read them later. It does not matter whether you use Windows, MAC, or another kind of computer. The pdf file format works on all computers. And you do not need to worry about a virus since it is not an executable file. With ebooks, you can easily be reading the book in minutes.

Why does it matter?
The very reason you are going to make a Last Will and Testament is because you want to know who will receive your property and who will have custody of your minor children when you die. Unless you know and understand how state laws may override your Will, you will never truly know what happens to your property and minor children when you die.
Information to help you, but not legal advice.
Please understand that I am not giving you any legal advice whatsoever. I can't. Valid legal advice is based on specific facts in a given situation. And, of course, I do not know your situation. However, I can give you general legal information. If you have any questions of any nature, you will need to talk with a lawyer licensed in your state.
I tell you what others won't or can't tell you.
You may be asking, "If it is so important to know what Last Will and Testaments cover and do not cover, why are others not telling me about how state laws affect Wills and estates?" To be honest, I cannot give you an answer. I believe that when you talk with a lawyer, he or she will tell you the same information as I give you in The Truth About Wills and Probate. However, I believe that most Will Kits and Will Programs are put together by non-lawyers and then reviewed by "top notch", unnamed lawyers. These lawyers look at the legality of the Will and nothing else. So vital information is never discussed.
Easy to understand.
Don't worry. The Truth About Wills and Probate is not written in legal-eze. It is not a long legal dissertation on estate law written for lawyers. Instead, it is written in plain simple English for non-lawyers. It is fairly short, but contains important information that you should know before you make your Last Will and Testament.

"Great Value"
That's a lot of information, isn't it? Imagine what a lawyer (like me) would charge you for this information if you sat down with the lawyer one on one. By writing The Truth About Wills and Probate, I can share the information with many more people than I ever could with one-on-one meetings. And I can charge significantly less. Not $200.00, not $125.00, and not even $50.00, but the incredibly low price of $27.00.
Make no mistake, at $27.00 your investment is worth every penny.

Standard Last Will And Testament Forms.
We provide you with 8 simple Last Will and Testament forms. These Will forms are the standard Last Will and Testament forms which have been modified to make them easy for you to use and to make them applicable in other states. As you can see, each Last Will and Testament form is designed for a different situation.
- Last Will and Testament forms for:
Married with adult Children
Married with minor Children (includes a children's trust until your child is 18 years old)
Married with minor Children (includes a children's trust until your child is 21 years old)

Single with adult Children

A word of caution. The other Last Will and Testament form is "respond and merge" where you answer questions and your responses are merged into a Last Will and Testament form. The completed form is then either made available on the web or e-mailed to you. Don't be fooled when some web site owners call these "custom" Wills. You cannot get a truly customized Last Will And Testament for your situation without giving very specific information and you cannot give that information by answering standard questions. Also, unlike our Last Will and Testament forms, if your Spouse wants a Last Will and Testament or you want to change your Will, you must repeat the process and pay again. "An Amazing Value"
