Will Preparation Clinic

This Year's clinic was held on January 28, 2001.  If you are interested in this service, please email mailto:hojc.org.  If enough interest is generated, we will hold this clinic again this year.

During the Adult Sunday School, a Will Clinic will be provided.  The following are reasons YOU need a will:

• Did you know that if Dad or Mom dies without a will, the remaining spouse will have to petition the court in order to be appointed guardian of your children?  Then they will have to post a bond to insure the court that they will do an acceptable job of bringing up the children.
• Did you know that without a will, the bulk of your estate, up to two-thirds, will go to the children and the remaining spouse will have to petition the court each time funds are need to care for the children?  A report will have to be filed with the report each year accounting for every cent that has been spent on the children.
• Did you know that if both parents die simultaneous without wills, the court will make the decision as to who will raise your children?
• Did you know that a will and other estate planning can help cut the death taxes and allow much more of your estate to go to your family?
