ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR WILL FORM
This section will briefly explain some of the articles of your will and provide other
information. Articles of the Will which are basically self explanatory are not discussed
here. In addition, information which is already provided in the instructions above is not
repeated.
First Paragraph: The first paragraph of the Will, provides your name,
residence information and provides that all prior Wills, if any, are revoked since you
have now made a new Will.
Article Three: Some people have specific property that they desire to leave
to a specific person, such as a ring or antique. This Article is for you to leave such
property. You do not have to name specific property and may simply state none if no
property is to be left under this Article.
Article Eleven: This Article is for you to name a personal representative,
also called executor or executrix. The person named should be an adult and may be
your partner or relative.
Article Twelve: If not waived, some Courts will require your Personal
Representative post a bond, and file an inventory, accounting and/or appraisal. All can
be costly and time consuming. This Article states your intention that your Personal
Representative not be required to post a bond or file an inventory or accounting.
Article Thirteen: This Article sets forth powers of your Personal
Representative and is designed to give broad powers without the requirement that Court
approval be sought for action by the Representative to the extent permitted by the laws
of your State.
Article Fourteen: This article sets forth some legal construction intentions to
clarify some of the issues which may arise. It also contains a common disaster clause
which provides that if you and your partner die in a common disaster, your Will is to
have precedence. In cases where you and your partner are making Wills, you would
only include this paragraph in one Will, or state in both which Will is to control.

BASIC INFORMATION
What is a Will? A Will is a document
which provides who is to receive your
property at death, who will administer your
estate, the appointment of trustees and
guardians, if applicable, and other
provisions.
Who may make a Will? Generally, any
person 18 years or older of sound mind
may make a Will. (Some states allow
persons under 18 to make a Will)
What happens if I die without a Will? If
you die without a will you are an intestate.
In such a case, state laws govern who
receives your property. These laws are
called "intestate succession laws". If you
die without a Will, the Court decides who
will administer your estate. Generally, it is
more expensive to administer an estate of
a person who died without a Will, than a
person who dies with a Will.
General
When making a Will you need to consider
who will be named as your personal
representative or executor to administer
your estate, who you will name as guardian
and trustee of minor children if your partner
does not survive you and who will receive
your property. You should also consider
tax issues. The person appointed as
executor or administrator is often your
partner, but you should also name an
alternate, in case your partner
predeceases you. The person you name
should be a person you can trust and who
will get along with the beneficiaries named
in the Will.
In the event your partner predeceases you,
the guardian you name will have actual
custody of your minor children unless a
court appoints someone else. The trustee
you appoint to administer a trust you
established will be in charge of the assets
of the trust for the benefit of the minor
beneficiaries.
Generally, a Will must be signed in the
presence of at least two witnesses who
also sign the Will. A notary public will also
need to sign if the Will contains a self-
proving affidavit. Generally, a self-proving
affidavit allows the Will to be admitted to probate without other evidence of
execution.
Joint Property: Many people do not
understand that joint property may pass
outside your Will and also sometimes
assume that it will pass through their Will.
They do not understand the significance of
joint ownership. The issue is common in
the following areas, provided as examples:
(a) Real Estate: Often, domestic
partners will own real estate as joint
tenants with rights of survivorship. If one
party dies, the surviving party receives the
property regardless of what the Will
provides. This is common and generally
acceptable. However, if this is not your
desire you should change the ownership of
the property to tenants in common or other
form of ownership. If you own real estate
as tenants in common, then you may
designate who will receive your share of
the property at your death. This issue can
be a problem when uninformed persons
take title to real estate as joint tenants with
rights of survivorship but really intended to
leave their share to, for example, children
of a prior marriage.
(b) Bank Accounts/Certificates of
Deposit, Stock, Retirement Plans, IRA’s
and other type Property: The same
ownership as real estate can be made of
these investments. In fact, many Banks
routinely place Bank accounts and
Certificates of Deposit in the joint tenant
with right of survivorship form of
ownership if more than one person is on
the account or CD, without advising you of
the consequence of same. In situations
where the persons are domestic partners
and there is no issue or concern over
separation or children from previous
marriages, this may be the best course of
action. However, with divorce on the rise,
premarital agreements and multiple
marriages being common, the parties may
be doing something that was not their
intent. Another common problematic
situation is where a parent has more than
one child but only one child resides in the
hometown of the parent. The parent may
place the name of the child who resides
there on all accounts, CD’s and other
investments for convenience reasons and
establish a joint tenant with right of
survivorship situation without realizing that
- 7 -
only that child will be entitled to those
assets at the parent’s death. Simply put,
you should be aware when you acquire an
asset or investment exactly how it is titled.

Property To Vest In Trustee for Child Beneficiary
In the event that my partner predeceases me as provided in Article Six, and any of my
children are under the age of __________________[37] years of age, then I direct that my
Personal Representative shall transfer, assign and deliver over to my Trustee, named
below, such beneficiary’s share of my estate and the objects of property described herein. I
direct my Trustee to hold said Beneficiaries share of my estate on the following terms and
conditions:
A.
The Trustee shall hold and administer the assets of the Trust for the use and benefit
of the Beneficiaries for the purpose of providing for their health, education and general
welfare in accordance with their accustomed standard of living as much as is possible,
considering the value of the Trust property and their other sources of income.

The Trustee may make such distributions as often or as seldom as he or she may determine
in his or her sole discretion without the necessity of any court authority or approval, this
being a private trust.
C.
As each Beneficiary herein reaches the age of __________________[38] years, the
Trustee shall distribute to said beneficiary his or her share of the trust principal and income
as of the distribution date. When the youngest Beneficiary reaches the age of
__________________[39] years, the Trustee shall distribute all of the remaining Trust
property including principal and accumulated income to the Beneficiary and this Trust shall
terminate. In making said distributions, the Trustee may make distributions in kind and shall
have the sole discretion as to valuation of the Trust property in determining and apportioning
distributions among the Beneficiaries.
D.
In the event of the death of any of the above named Beneficiary prior to the final date
of distribution, and said deceased Beneficiary shall leave living issue, the Trustee shall hold
only that portion of the Trust property attributable to said deceased Beneficiary beyond the
distribution dates as provided in Subparagraph C above, and administer said Trust property
for the use and benefit of said living issue. When said youngest living issue reaches the age
of __________________[40] years, the Trust as to said living issue shall terminate and the
Trustee shall distribute all of the remaining Trust property in equal shares to said living
issue. In the event of the death of any of the above named Beneficiaries prior to the final
date of distribution and said deceased Beneficiaries leave no living issue, then that portion
of the Trust property to be distributed to the deceased Beneficiaries as provided for in
Subparagraph C above, shall instead be distributed to the surviving Beneficiaries in equal
shares.
