What Is the Purpose of a Will?
A last will and testament in Arizona is an important legal document for various reasons, including:
- A last will and testament can designate an alternate guardian for minor children.
- A last will and testament can provide instructions for distributing personal effects, such as artwork, electronics, furniture, jewelry, and more.
- A last will and testament can designate an executor to pay final expenses, distribute assets, file tax returns, etc.
A last will and testament will only control estate property of which the person who has passed had exclusive ownership.

A last will and testament will also not help a person avoid the probate court process.
