Guidance for Protecting Your Family and Your Future
A will is one of the most important legal documents you can have. It puts your wishes in writing, names who will care for your loved ones, and ensures your property is distributed the way you intend. At Modern Counsel, we help individuals and families across Iowa create wills that bring clarity, protection, and peace of mind.
Why Having a Will Matters
Creating a will gives you control over what happens to your estate and the people who depend on you. Without one, state law decides how your assets are divided—and that might not reflect your wishes.
A well-drafted will can:
- Designate how your property and assets will be distributed
- Name an executor to carry out your wishes
- Appoint guardians for minor children or dependents
- Provide guidance for final arrangements or personal wishes
- Coordinate with a trust or other estate planning documents
Having a will ensures your loved ones aren’t left guessing about your intentions. It provides direction, prevents unnecessary conflict, and helps your family through a difficult time with less stress and uncertainty.
