Estate Planning

Building up assets like your home, holiday house and investments takes a lot of hard work over many years. Consequently, most people want to ensure that when they are gone, their assets are distributed to those closest to them.

Estate planning is the process of setting up an orderly disposition of a person's assets after death, so as to limit or avoid legal and financial complications, excessive fees and expenses, but most often, taxes.

An estate plan should:

• be administratively simple to operate;
• not be too expensive to maintain;
• balance life-time enjoyment of assets / income with preserving assets for family after death; and
• be regularly reviewed.

You should expect a number of professionals to be involved in the estate planning process as proper estate planning requires the expertise offered by a solicitor and accountant in conjunction with the guidance of a financial planner.
