Wills and Estates Administration
Many people find the idea of having their Will prepared a bit frightening. The good news is that for most people the process is pretty easy and not at all time-consuming.
The most important thing about preparing to make a Will is to take the time to work out all the assets that you wish to distribute after you die and to decide the people you want to receive those items.
Of course, you may want a more complicated set of arrangements, for example, a testamentary trust. That means your Will can be written to allocate an asset or amount of money for the ultimate benefit of a family member or friend, but the asset or money is held for that person’s benefit by a trustee until the beneficiary reaches a certain age or stage in life.
That is just one example of what a Will can do. However, whatever your needs are, we can help with the drafting of your Will.
Estate Administration is the process of making sure the Will of a deceased person is acted upon according to the law so that their final wishes are validly carried out. For a family member or close friend being the executor of a Will can seem a little daunting. We can guide you through the formalities and ensure that what your friend or family member intended under their Will is efficiently and sensitively done.
Whether you are making a Will or arranging the administration of an Estate, we will take the time to explain things and to answer all of your questions. We understand that times like these can be emotional and difficult.
