NOTE:

A Guardian of the Estate, or Conservator, has significant responsibilities including, but not limited to, securing a fiduciary bond, filing periodic reports with the court, and geting the court's permission for significant expenses. To avoid the expense and requirements connected to serving as a conservator, many parents of minor children choose to create a trust with a trustee The trustee does not need to be bonded or file reports with the court. A trust allows parents to indicate what the trustee is to do with the assets he/she holds, namely to provide for the health, support and education of the minor beneficiary. The trust also allows parents to indicate when the trust will end - when your child reaches the age you indicate. If you would like to create a trust, please see a qualified attorney. You may still complete the Faith Wills process and share the resulting will with your attorney.
Guardian of the Estate. Unless you indicate otherwise, the guardian of your children will also serve as the financial guardian ("conservator") until your children become adults.

The "Executor" is a person named by you who will be responsible for making sure your legal and financial wishes are fulfilled, as indicated in this will. This person is often a family member or close friend.

To accommodate different state requirements, choose competent executors who are at least 21 years of age, a resident of your state, and not convicted of a crime or suspended / disbarred from practicing law.
Who is your FIRST choice to serve as the executor. Please indicate his/her full legal name and your relationship (friend, daughter, brother, etc.). *

Adding a self-proving affidavit to your will can help prevent the need for your executor to locate the witnesses to your will and can help prevent the need for your witnesses to appear in court. The self-proving affidavit certifies that you and your witnesses properly signed the will. If you choose to add a self-proving affidavit, your will document will include a section for a notary public to confirm that you and your witnesses properly signed the will in his/her presence.

Louisiana requires that wills be notarized. If you are a Louisiana resident, select "Yes" below. The District of Columbia, Maryland, Ohio, and Vermont do not currently allow the option of a self-proving affidavit.
