WILLS & ESTATES If you don't have a will when you die, the State has a plan for disposal of your property which you may not like! Anyone who owns anything of value or who has minor children should consult an attorney regarding a will or estate planning. With a minimum of effort and money, you can save your heirs from undue grief, waste of precious time and reduce the amount of taxes they pay. You have worked hard all your life. Protect what's yours.
