Why Should You Draft a Will?

Will Drafting Services

Drafting a will is an important decision to ensure that your assets and rights are distributed in accordance with your wishes after your passing. In the absence of a will, assets will be divided according to statutory succession, which may lead to unintended conflicts and disputes among family members. A will clearly designates heirs, specifies the rights of each individual, and may appoint an estate administrator if necessary. This not only prevents family discord but also reduces the burden on loved ones in managing the estate.

Additionally, a will protects the interests of those you wish to prioritize, such as children, spouse, or dependents. You may allocate specific assets to particular individuals, avoiding disputes or delays caused by court decisions. A will can also express special wishes, such as donating assets to charitable organizations or protecting the rights of individuals who are not statutory heirs.

Furthermore, drafting a will allows the testator to control the fair and reasonable distribution of assets, avoiding unnecessary legal or emotional complications. It ensures that your family understands your intentions, and when you are no longer present to decide, the will serves as clear legal evidence to enforce your wishes. Therefore, drafting a will provides peace of mind for yourself and spares your family future difficulties.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wills

How Many Types of Wills Exist?

There are two main types: oral wills and written wills. Written wills include:

Notarized or certified written wills;
Written wills with or without witnesses.

In Which Cases Do Heirs Receive Inheritance Regardless of the Will’s Contents?

Pursuant to Article 644 of the Civil Code 2015, the following persons are entitled to a share equal to at least two-thirds of the statutory inheritance portion if they receive nothing or less than that amount under the will:
– Minor children, parents, spouse;
– Adult children incapable of working.

Is an Unnotarized and Uncertified Written Will Valid?

An unwitnessed written will that is neither notarized nor certified is valid only if:
i. The testator was of sound mind when drafting it and was not deceived, threatened, or coerced; and
ii. The contents do not violate prohibited provisions of law or social morality, and the form complies with legal requirements.

Note: Notarization/certification is the act by which a competent individual or organization confirms the authenticity and legality of a contract, civil transaction, or translation.

Is an Oral Will Valid?

An oral will is valid if the testator expresses their final wishes in the presence of at least two witnesses, who record the wishes and sign or affix fingerprints. Within five working days, the signatures or fingerprints of the witnesses must be certified by a notary public or competent authority.
If all conditions are met, the oral will is legally valid, and the named beneficiaries may distribute the estate accordingly.

How Is an Estate Handled If There Are No Heirs?

If there are no heirs, the remaining assets, after fulfillment of property obligations, become state property.

Do Stepchildren Inherit from Stepparents?

Stepchildren who have been cared for and raised by a stepparent as biological children are entitled to inherit as biological children.

Do Adopted Children Inherit Like Biological Children?

Adopted children and biological children are both first-order heirs, so adopted children inherit from adoptive parents in the same manner as biological children.
