Estate Plan Letter of Instruction. Dear (Executor, Agent, Trustee, Loved One, Etc.) I am writing this letter to provide you with important information you will need to know in the event of my incapacity or death. Please refer to this letter for assistance as you deal with my affairs.
The letter includes the name of the deceased, the date of their death, and a list of assets and their respective beneficiaries. The letter also includes instructions for the distribution of assets, such as how and when the assets will be distributed to the beneficiaries.
While it cant serve as a substitute for a last will, a letter of instruction can be extremely helpful to your loved ones. You can spell your wishes out in simple terms, and you can leave them a final message without the formality that comes with a legal document.
Probate is the process completed when a decedent leaves assets to distribute, such as bank accounts, real estate, and financial investments. Probate is the general administration of a deceased persons will or the estate of a deceased person without a will.
A key step in preparing a will is selecting an executor of the estate or estate representative (executor) who will ensure that the deceased persons last wishes are carried out and their financial affairs are settled.
