Preparation of Wills

A Will is a critical legal document that ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes after your passing. To be valid, a Will must meet several legal requirements.

When planning your Will or handling your estate matters, here are a few key considerations:

Who will serve as your executor?

  • Do you wish to leave specific gifts to family, friends, or charitable organizations?
  • Do you have minor children whose education or care you want to secure?

Each Will is unique and should reflect your personal circumstances and goals. It’s important to get tailored advice to ensure your wishes are clearly documented and legally sound.

We can help you take the next step, secure your legacy and bring peace of mind to you and your loved ones with a well-prepared Will.

What is A Will?

A will is a legal document in which an individual (the testator) specifies how their assets—such as property, money, and personal belongings—should be distributed upon their death. It also allows the testator to appoint executors to manage the estate.

Why You Should Prepare a Will?

Control Over Asset Distribution:
Ensure your assets go to the individuals or organizations you choose.

Minimize Family Disputes:
Reduce the potential for conflicts among family members by clearly stating your wishes.

State your wishes for Guardians for Minor Children:
Name persons who you wish to be considered to care for your children if both parents pass away.

Simplify the Probate Process:
A valid will can expedite the legal process of administering your estate.

 

When Should You Prepare a Will?

It’s advisable to prepare a will as soon as you acquire assets, such as property, savings, or investments. Regularly review and update your will to reflect significant life changes, including:

  • Marriage or divorce
  • Birth or adoption of children
  • Acquisition or sale of property
  • Changes in financial status
