Q:<br />
Upon my death, won’t my children automatically inherit my<br />
estate and if I have no children don’t my assets pass to my closest<br />
living relatives making a Last Will and Testament or other forms<br />
of estate planning unnecessary?<br />
A: With or without a Last Will, in order for your assets to reach<br />
your heirs or other beneficiaries, a probate court proceeding is<br />
generally required to transfer your assets. An attorney must be<br />
hired to petition the court to supervise disbursement of your<br />
assets as directed by your Will or state law. To avoid probate you<br />
should consider preparing a Revocable Living Trust to transfer<br />
assets at your death.<br />
