Wills & Estates
It is important to have a will to ensure you provide a clear declaration as to the manner in which your estate is to be distributed. Having a will allows you to control who your beneficiaries and executors are, and also reduces taxes payable and the cost of administering your estate. Without a will, the law of intestacy applies on how your assets will be distributed. We can assist in preparing wills and power of attorney documents to provide clarity in the distribution of assets and properties.
