How do I go about changing the name of my legal guardian on my will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark E. Bredow (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bredow Law PLC
Yes. You may create an amendment to your will, called a Codicile (Cod - ih - sill). It changes parts of your will without changing all of your will. Or, you can create an entirely new will that replaces your old will. Wills are not difficult to create and an attorney should not charge you too much. Something as important as naming a guardian should not be delayed over a few dollars. Or, you may draft your own will and tear up the old one. Michigan law has a statutory will. It is a form that you may complete that is valid. I recommend that you consult an attorney to help you.

How do I leave everything to my kids?

Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
You can leave all of your separate property and 1/2 of any community property you have now or accumulate during the marriage to whomever you chose, including your children. Simply have a will prepared stating your wishes. It will be helpful to avoid any problems down the road if the will is drafted to include specific reference to the fact that you do not want to leave anything to your spouse and the reason why.
