Your Estate Planning Questions, Answered
Q: Do I need a lawyer to make a will in Georgia?
A: While DIY forms exist, a lawyer ensures your wishes are legally enforceable, customized, and compliant with Georgia law.
Q: How often should I update my will or trust?
A: Review your plan after major life events (marriage, children, moving states) or every few years to ensure it still meets your needs.
Q: What happens if I die without a will in Georgia?
A: State law dictates who inherits your property—often not as you’d wish. A valid will keeps you in control.

A: No—everyone can benefit from a plan that avoids confusion, conflict, and unnecessary expenses for loved ones.
Q: Can Grantham Law help with property in Alabama or Tennessee?
