The Law Queens wish you a Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous 2023 and suggest adding some legal matters to your list of resolutions as they are just as important as losing weight, being more organized, or learning a new skill.

Get a Last Will and Testament if you don’t have one. Wills are not just for the 1% or the elderly. Just about everyone needs a Last Will and Testament. Without a formal Will, any disputes over property, assets, children, or even pets will be left to the legal system – and no one wants the courts making those decisions. A Will directs the transfer and management of your property and assets so that your family does not fight over your estate, no matter how modest it may be. A Will can allow you to name a guardian for minor children and place your assets in a trust to benefit your children, other family members, or a charity, and ensure that your last wishes are carried out.

In addition to a Will, you should also have a Living Will, which gives guidance in advance for healthcare and treatment decisions should you become incapacitated - and a Power of Attorney, which allows you to appoint someone to handle your legal and financial affairs if you are unable. If you already have these documents or any life insurance policies, review them each year and update them as needed to take into account any significant life changes, such as marriage, divorce, new children, or the acquisition of new property. These documents are reasonably inexpensive and take about an hour of consultation with an attorney. Unlike the gym, you only need to take action once unless changes are necessary!
