When making your Will, it is important that you do not leave your estate exposed to unnecessary taxation as well as claims by creditors and unanticipated predators.

 

If your main asset is the family home, it is especially important to preserve your estate for the benefit of your loved ones.

 

While your current Will may be appropriate for today's circumstances, it is impossible to predict the future life paths of each of your intended beneficiaries.

 

Current best practice entails a more flexible approach for Will drafting as well as the use of Discretionary Testamentary Trust arrangements which will protect your intended beneficiaries from unanticipated tax obligations and other exposures.
