FAQ: Are children that I have in the future included in a Will created today?

Yes. As long as your estate planning documents are carefully crafted, any of your children born after your Will is created may be automatically included as beneficiaries. Such careful crafting would include, but not be limited to, provisions explicitly including after-born children. If your intention is to include children born in the future in your Will, you should be careful to ensure there is no intention to the contrary or apparent intention to the contrary. See Florida Statute § 732.507.

At Brett Legal, we carefully craft Wills to ensure your specific intentions are honored. If you are in need of an attorney to prepare your Will, do not hesitate to contact us.
