Experienced Wills Attorneys Serving Cincinnati
A last will and testament is the foundation of any estate plan. Without one, Ohio law determines who inherits your assets -- and the results may not reflect your wishes. The attorneys at Wolterman Law Office draft comprehensive, legally sound wills for Cincinnati families and individuals.
What Does a Will Cover?
- Distribution of your assets to named beneficiaries
- Designation of a guardian for minor children
- Appointment of an executor to manage your estate
- Instructions for paying debts and taxes
- Specific bequests of personal property
- Charitable gifts
Requirements for a Valid Will in Ohio
To be valid in Ohio, a will must be in writing, signed by the testator (the person making the will), and witnessed by two competent witnesses who are not beneficiaries. Our attorneys ensure your will meets all legal requirements and is properly executed.
When Should You Update Your Will?
- After marriage, divorce, or separation
- After the birth or adoption of a child
- After the death of a beneficiary or executor
- After a significant change in assets
- After moving to a new state
- Every 3-5 years as a general best practice
