With today’s busy lifestyle, it is easy to overlook making a will and yet you can do it quickly, given the right legal advice and assistance. The consequences of dying “intestate” or without leaving a will can be devastating for your loved ones, especially if they receive only a fraction of what you wish them to inherit. A will is only a document of intent and it does not come into effect until you die. Before then, you can always change its terms and even revoke it. It offers flexibility and control, as opposed to an outright gift or transfer during your lifetime. We do not offer any advice on taxation or financial matters for which you must rely on your accountants and tax specialists only. We will help you to record your gifts in writing and appoint the persons you trust to handle the distribution of your estate.
We can also assist in the administration of the deceased’s estate by first obtaining a grant of representation from the Probate Registry and then collecting the assets, paying off the debts and finally distributing according to the will. We can also advise the executors as how to minimise their personal liabilities.
We can assist in other personal and family matters and you will benefit from our experience and efficient services, such as:
Probate and Intestacy issues;
Will and Codicil legality disputes;
Deed of Family Arrangement;
Executor, beneficiary and distribution disputes;
Replacement of executors; and
Waiver of inheritance rights.
Don’t Risk It!
We can help you and your family through many stages of life, including preparing your Will and Power of Attorney and handling Probate and administration matters. We always advise our clients to take prompt action and seek specialist advice whenever necessary
