ESTATE PLANNING
Why Are Estate Planning Strategies So Important?
​
The main reason you need to plan your estate is to make sure your money and assets are inherited by the people you want to receive them. Another important reason is to make sure they attract as little tax as possible.
​
Your Will plays a large part, so you need to make sure it is up-to-date, and correctly reflects your wishes.
​
Even if you don’t have many assets, having a will can save your beneficiaries, family and friends a lot of trouble and heartache. Otherwise it could take months to sort out your affairs.
