A quick definition of last will:

A last will is a document that a person writes to say what they want to happen to their things after they die. It's like a wish list for their stuff. There are different types of wills, like ones that are handwritten, ones that need witnesses, and ones that only work if something specific happens. Some wills are not allowed if they don't follow certain rules. A will is important because it helps make sure that a person's things go to the people they want them to go to.

A more thorough explanation:

A last will is a legal document that a person creates to direct how their property and assets will be distributed after their death. It is also known as a testament or a will and testament. The last will is the most recent will of a deceased person and ultimately determines the disposition of their real and personal property.

Examples:

  • John created a last will that stated his house and car would be given to his son, and his savings account would be split equally between his two daughters.
  • Mary's last will directed that her antique collection would be donated to a local museum, and the rest of her estate would be divided among her grandchildren.

These examples illustrate how a last will can be used to distribute a person's property and assets after their death according to their wishes.
