Why Act Now
| Situation | Risk if you wait |
|---|---|
| No will | NY EPTL Article 4 intestacy distributes your estate — not your wishes |
| Outdated will | Life changes (marriage, divorce, new assets) may invalidate key provisions |
| Missing witnesses | Under EPTL §3-2.1, two attesting witnesses are required — a defective will can be denied probate in Surrogate’s Court |
| Surviving spouse | EPTL §5-1.1-A spousal right of election applies whether or not a will exists |
Already have a will? Ask about codicils and amendments or whether a living will (a separate health-care document) belongs in your plan.
