If you answered "Yes" to either question, a Will is the best way to accomplish that. If you have minor children in your care or dependents that you wish to provide for, it is responsible to prepare and properly execute a Will to make those provisions.
Your property will be distributed when you die whether you have a Will or not. If you have relatives, more likely than not they will wind up with some or all of that property.

Do you want to make your own decisions about your all aspects of your personal care and medical treatment?
