Changing the wills

[Cross Hair]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio

Do I need to wait until the dissolution is final before changing our will ?

Will my ex need to be involved in the process?

If I have a new will created does it just over ride the old one or do I need to contact the original attorney and have him void it?

Thanks

Q: Do I need to wait until the dissolution is final before changing our will ?

A: You may change your will at any time; the better time would be after your lawsuit is over.



Q: Will my ex need to be involved in the process?

A: Not unless you want him or her to be.



Q: If I have a new will created does it just over ride the old one or do I need to contact the original attorney and have him void it?

A: A well-drafted will will revoke any prior will.

Write it now.
Sign it as soon as the divorce decree is final. While the ink is still wet.
