Probate and Last Will and Testament

 You need to ensure that upon your death, your property is distributed among your family and friends as you wish. Your last will and testament will help.

What You Should Know: 

  • Because state laws regarding wills, detailed in the Official Code of Georgia, seem complex at times, you may want to talk to an attorney early in the process of estate planning.
  • Wills are individual, so there's no one form to use. 
  • You may identify in your will an executor who will work with the county probate court, manage your estate and pay off all your estate's debts.
  • To help the county probate court accept your will, your will should include a self-proving affidavit executed at the same time as your Will and attached to the will to verify that all requirements of valid execution were fulfilled.
  • Can often complete the preparation and execution of your Last Will and Testament in one office visit by exchanging information and drafts by email and meeting with witnesses and a Notary Public at the time of final execution
  • When you go through any major change in your life — a marriage, a divorce, a birth, or adoption of a child, or a move between states — you should consider updating your will.
