Last Will and Testament

Your Last will and testament can create what is known as a testamentary trust which only comes into effect after you have passed away. It is established according to the instructions you have left in the will and managed by a trustee that you appoint. Unlike other types of trusts, the testamentary trust does not avoid the probate process.

Types of Wills

Simple Wills
A simple will is straightforward and typically includes basic instructions for distributing your assets. It is suitable for individuals with uncomplicated estates who want to ensure their wishes are clearly documented.
Living Wills
A living will, also known as an advance healthcare directive, outlines your preferences for medical care if you become incapacitated and unable to communicate your wishes. It ensures that your healthcare decisions are respected.
Joint Wills
Joint wills are created by two individuals, usually spouses, to outline how their combined estate should be managed and distributed. While it simplifies planning, it also limits flexibility as it cannot be changed without both parties’ consent.
Testamentary Trust Wills
A testamentary trust will establishes one or more trusts upon your death. This can be useful for managing the inheritance of minor children or providing for beneficiaries who may need assistance managing their inheritance.
