Summary
Daniel Robbins sits down with William “Bill” Funk, an attorney with more than 30 years of experience, to talk about one of the most important but most avoided topics: writing a will. Bill explains why people delay estate planning, what can go wrong when someone dies without a will, why choosing the right executor matters, and how families can avoid unnecessary court battles, legal fees, and confusion. The conversation also covers trusts, business ownership, community property, family fairness, unsigned wills, witnesses, and why Bill wrote a book to help people create a simple will without paying thousands of dollars to an attorney.
