WILLS AND PROBATE

WILLS SET OUT YOUR FUTURE
Planning ahead in any aspect of life is crucial. One significant part of your road ahead is the making of your Will.

Purpose of a Will

A Will ensures your wishes are followed regarding your possessions, money and property are passed out correctly after you die, making sure your family is provided for in the future which will give you real peace of mind. We can ensure you get the right advice so that your wealth is passed onto your loved ones smoothly and with the least amount of stress to your loved ones.

Why You Should Make a Will

Without a will, there can be a lot of unnecessary heartache as there are strict laws dictating what will happen to your estate; your partner could be forced to sell your home or it could be passed into the hands of a distant relative instead of the people who are important to you. 

Dying without a Will

If you die without a will, it means you have died “intestate.” When this happens, the intestacy laws will determine how your property is distributed upon your death. This includes any bank accounts, securities, real estate, and other assets you own at the time of death. 

The result of this is that you run the risk of excluding somebody you love from benefiting from the contents of your estate potentially leave your estate to people who are less important to you. 

Probate

Whether probate is necessary depends on what property the decedent owned and how it was held.
The probate process clarifies issues in a will and resolves any challenges to the distribution of funds of an estate. The type of probate needed depends on the size of an estate. Generally, it is necessary to go through probate before the deceased's property can be legally distributed. Without probate of a will, complicated legal issues can arise.
