Wills
A Last Will & Testament provides for distribution of property that is not already automatically conveyed upon death, such as assets with designated beneficiaries, assets with right of survivorship, "pay on death" or other similar designations, and trusts. With a Will, Arizona law will control disposition of your estate on death. At a minimum, a Will should nominate a Personal Representative who will be responsible for administering your estate on death, nominate a Guardian for minor children, nominate a Trustee for assets to be held in trust for minor children, as well as funds to be held in trust for tax planning purposes or persons with special needs or who are otherwise unable to manage their affairs.
