How can i protect my will?
How can i protect my will?
All adults should have a will. This might be simply to ensure peace of mind that your assets will pass to the people that you want them to, at the appropriate time. It may also be to cover something as important as appointing guardians for young children if you were no longer there.
However, as we work primarily with wealthy families, we recognise the myriad of questions and considerations that matter when deciding how your wealth will be distributed after you die, whether that might be protecting your assets for your bloodline, to looking to maximise the value passing to your chosen beneficiaries.
Rather than simply converting your wishes into a legal document, we will work with you to work out the best structure for your will on the basis of your wishes and your individual circumstances.
