“Am I fully prepared and will those close to me be in any way burdened when I die?”
~ Anon
A Will may be the most important document a person may ever have, yet only a very few spend the time to ensure it’s in place and keep it up to date.
The main reasons for having a professionally drafted Will in place are:
- It is your right to decide who should inherit your assets
- Ensure those close to you are taken care of
- Ensure your wishes are binding and enforceable
- Avoid unnecessary delays and costly administration
- Ensure tax efficient transfer of wealth

The most common challenges we find when winding up a deceased estate are:
- There is no Will and the family does not know where to start;
- No provision is made for the minor children and how their inheritance will be managed;
- The existing Will is not up to date;
- There is no living Will informing family members what should be done if one is on life support and there is no reasonable prospect of recovery;
- The family waste precious time piecing together the estate and in many cases find essential documents are missing or simply don’t exist which leads to lengthy delays.
