Wills and Estates
As difficult as it may be to think of the passing of a loved one, arranging a will early in advance is crucial to ensure your assets are distributed in accordance with your wishes.
A will allows you to define how you want your assets to be distributed in the event of your demise. It allows you to appoint an executor to administer your estate, which is important if you want to ensure your estate is managed according to your wishes. Having a will in place also helps avoid any family disputes or confusion when it comes to distributing your assets.
