Why Hire a Family Lawyer When Making a Will and Planning Your Estate?

When planning your estate and making a will, it’s not enough that you get the help of a wills and estates lawyer. You should also consider retaining the services of a family lawyer in New Westminster. Here are the ways a family lawyer in New Westminster can help you:  


  • They can help you understand family law better, which can be helpful in making your will 
What if you are in a blended family? Are you obliged to leave something for the children of your spouse? How do you protect your own children when you are in a blended family? What if you are still supporting an ex financially? Will your ex become entitled to a portion of your estate? These are some of the questions that a family lawyer can help you answer.  


  • They can help you when it comes to deciding on guardianship 
When you have young children who can’t fend for themselves and can’t make decisions yet, it’s important that you appoint the right guardian who will be able to take care of them. Choosing a guardian is an important part of writing a will. If you don’t have a guardian appointed, the court will decide who gets custody of your children.  


  • They can help you create a will that can prevent conflicts 
Conflicts in the family are not uncommon once the will is executed. Some family members might want to contest the will. A family lawyer can help you create a will that won’t be contested.
A family lawyer from Kinman & Associates can help you write a solid and fail-proof will.
