Simple Wills

MG Law provides straightforward and clear Simple Wills drafting, ensuring your final wishes are legally documented and respected.

This service caters to individuals seeking to create a will that is straightforward, legally binding, and reflective of their final wishes. This service is particularly suited for situations where the estate and the wishes of the individual are uncomplicated, ensuring a clear and direct distribution of assets upon their passing.

Our approach begins with a personal consultation to understand your specific circumstances, assets, and how you wish them to be distributed. We discuss various aspects of your estate, including property, investments, savings, personal belongings, and any specific legacies or gifts you want to leave to family, friends, or charities.

The drafting process for a usual will involves:

• clearly identifying the testator (the person making the will);
• appointing an executor who will be responsible for carrying out the terms of the will;
• detailing the distribution of assets, specifying who receives what, and under what conditions;
• specifying any specific gifts, such as family heirlooms, jewelry, or donations to charity; and
• including any other specific instructions or wishes you may have.

In drafting your will, MG Law ensures that it complies with all legal requirements to make it valid and enforceable. This includes ensuring the will is correctly signed, dated, and witnessed. We also provide guidance on how to store your will securely and how to communicate its existence and location to your executor or close family members.

Beyond the drafting, we offer advice on reviewing and updating your will. Life events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of children, or significant changes in your financial situation can necessitate updates to your will. We emphasize the importance of keeping your will current to reflect your most recent wishes and circumstances.

For clients who may have more complex estates or specific legal concerns, we can provide guidance and, if necessary, refer them to more specialized estate planning services.

This service offers a straightforward, empathetic, and professional approach to will drafting, ensuring that your final wishes are clearly articulated, legally documented, and ready to be implemented when the time comes.
