How would you like to be remembered by your family? What values and memories do you desire to pass on to your children? Do you seek forgiveness or wish to grant forgiveness? An Ethical Will is a unique and powerful way to relay and pass along various feelings, wishes and desires to your loved ones. In a meaningful way it is an opportunity to create your own legacy. Ethical Wills are not new and in fact go back 3000 years originating in the Hebrew Bible. They began as an oral tradition but later on individuals starting setting them down in writing. An Ethical Will can be prepared at any time during your life. Traditionally they have been prepared in the midst of a traumatic life threatening experience, perhaps towards the end of a long illness or upon leaving for war. However, they can also be prepared on the cusp of life's most vibrant and joyous experiences, perhaps prior to the birth of a child or the marriage of a loved one. An Ethical Will gives the writer an opportunity to transmit notions of love, values, memories, blessings for the future, forgiveness, even regrets and the list can go on an on. An Ethical Will can be drafted by anyone. Many people choose to write their own. However, for a person who just does not know where to begin, turning to an attorney is a natural choice. Our members would be happy to work with you in ensuring that your legacies are preserved for generations to come through the preparation of an Ethical Will.
