Writing your Will.
Some people say you can write your own will. It is just an expression of your wishes
right? Not so fast! If a mistake is made, then your will may be
rendered unenforceable after your death.
Now there is nothing that your survivors can do about it. They will be forced to battle it out in the
courts and who knows what a mess that will be.
You should always seek the professional help of an attorney
who has drawn up wills, preferably for decades.
Sit down with him or her and carefully consider what is best for your
friends and relatives. For nine out of
ten people in the Texas Panhandle a simple, properly executed will is all you
need. Isn’t that comforting?
At the Cornett Law Firm, Attorney Bill Cornett will draw up
a will in a professional and legal manner.
Go ahead, call him in his Amarillo office and ask him to sit down with
you at your convenience to draw up your last will and testament. If you have been putting off this important
task call today at (806) 374-9498 for more information.

Probate is Not Expensive.
Probate has been given a bad rap. It does not have to be an arduous and
expensive process. In many cases,
probate is not even necessary! Did you
know that filing for probate is usually a matter of filing an application,
having a hearing for 15 minutes before a county judge, making an inventory
sheet, and simply filing a motion to close?
When you hear about the process of most probate filings
it doesn’t seem like a green-eyed monster anymore. The judge will sign an order closing the
estate which should take no more than 2-3 months. Are you concerned about the tax
implications? Know this, there are no
federal estate taxes on estates valued at less than 5 million dollars. Most estates are not like Paisley Park.
Stop and take a breath and call a lawyer who has had
decades of experience filing for probate in the state of Texas. Pick up the phone and call Attorney Bill
Cornett serving Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle at (806) 374-9498. Bill is your choice as an experienced probate
lawyer in the Texas Panhandle. Don’t
waste another minute. Call him today.
