Ok not the most pleasant of topics, but necessary to have.
Do you think it''s a problem if DH and I have our wills drawn by 2 different attorneys?
Background-
Before I met DH I had a will drawn up because I own a home and have 5 siblings, and didn''t want them saddled with the burden of me not having a will should something unexpected happen.
My mom passed away 5 months ago so I''m currently working with my attorney (hers as well) to settle the estate.
Meanwhile, DH and I are newly married and I want to update my will to ensure that he is my beneficiary- I don''t want to change attorneys since to update my will is simple and he would do it for free since we''re already working on the estate.
DH has no will currently, but has a prepaid legal plan at work where he can get one drawn up free of charge.
Question is- is it ok for spouses to have their wills at 2 different attorneys? We don''t have complicated situations at all (my will is a one pager!), so I didn''t think it was, but wondering if anyone has any different advice?
