(Community News ~ 09/20/19)

SENIOR SELECTIONS SEPTEMBER 2019 - Why Can’t I Just Write My Own Will?
(Community News ~ 09/20/19)
Every now and then, someone brings me a handwritten “will,” and asks me to notarize it or “look it over and see if it’s okay.” I wish things were that easy, but that’s a little like asking your doctor to sign a prescription you’ve written after diagnosing yourself.
