Here are some reasons we recommend working with a wills and estate lawyer when drafting your will.
Legal Expertise
While you can go online and research your will’s legal requirements, everyone’s situation is different. Your estate may need addressing to comply with the correct legal requirements.
Wills and estate lawyers will clarify your intentions for your assets having regard to any legal requirements for those assets. Your lawyer will utilise compliance knowledge and expertise to help you avoid legal challenges or issues that can invalidate your will.
Customised Guidance Before Signing A Will
A wills and estate lawyer can provide indispensable legal advice tailored to your unique circumstances.
Apart from ensuring your will complies with relevant regulations, your lawyer will customise your will to address specific family dynamics, financial considerations and potential tax implications to ensure your estate distribution wishes are fulfilled.
Preventing Disputes
Professional legal advice will minimise the risk of disputes among your loved ones.
Will and estate lawyers specialise in foreseeing potential conflicts and how to mitigate their likelihood. Your lawyer will also clarify legal jargon to communicate your intentions clearly in your will.
Working with an experienced lawyer is the best approach to preventing family disagreements and drawn-out legal battles that may arise after your passing.
For example, if you distribute a larger share of your estate to one of your children, how can you ensure your other children will be unsuccessful should they contest your will?
