Wills

There is an old saying "Where there is a Will, there is a relative" but where there is no Will there are a lot more relatives. Many people unfortunately do not make a Will which in some circumstances may lead to disputes and also increased financial burdens in the form of taxation after a person's death and may lead to the sale of a property, which may not have been the deceased persons wishes.

Making a Will is a simple procedure which can prevent many problems arising and ensure that your estate is administered in accordance with your wishes and if you have any young children that they are cared for by people chosen by you. It is generally inexpensive and normally requires one consultation to enable us to advise you on the drafting of a Will, on any potential tax liabilities and thereafter we draft the Will for you and at our second consultation it is approved and signed. We can then store your Will for you in our safe free of charge. It is also recommended by us that your Will should be reviewed at least every five years and if it has not been reviewed recently then you should arrange a consultation with us where we can advise you on any tax changes that may have effected the provisions of your Will and how best to minimize any potential tax liability. Of course your wishes may have changed in the interim.

Our services are as follows:

• Advises on the appointment of an Executor and or Testamentary Guardian to look after your   estate and children following your death.
• Assists and specifies what should be included in your Will.
• Provides you with a fully comprehensive Will, which can be updated as often as you so wish.
• Advises on whether there is a potential liability to taxation.
• Advises on how you can minimise any liability to The Revenue Commissioners through Insurance   Schemes and other Schemes.
• It ensures that your possessions are distributed in accordance with your wishes, thereby   removing any confusion or conflict between family and friends.   BACK
