Re: will

You should meet with an attorney in your area who will discuss the goals you seek to accomplish with your new will and other important considerations. An experienced practitioner, when advised of your prior will, will take the appropriate steps to revoke that prior will by including such language in the new one. Be careful of form wills or wills prepared by non-professionals because a variety of problems can develop that will invalidate or call into question your new will.

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

When drafting a new will, your attorney will include language that will dissolve all prior wills made by you so that they will no longer be of any effect. The drafting of a will is a task that you should not attempt to do on your own. Any mistake could invalidate your will thereby leaving your property not properly protected. Choose an attorney to represent you who has the requisite experience and with whom you feel comfortable.
