Death & Taxes – making your Will

Making your will. We know it’s something you’ve been meaning to do.  We know it’s hard to find the time.  We know it feels like a lot of hassle.

But as Benjamin Franklin once said “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” 

For the overwhelming majority of people, their will is actually quite a straight forward document once completed.  However, it is the advice you receive and the little bit of thought you put into it at the beginning that will make the process far less daunting and you’ll wonder why you put off doing it for so long.

So, if you have children and/or own your own home (or other assets) and/or are recently married or divorced and/or want to minimise the potential tax liabilities of your surviving family members (to include brothers and sisters) stop putting it off and let our experienced probate solicitor Teresa O’Sullivan prepare your will for you.

A little bit of planning now will bring you peace of mind.  By making your will you will be able to:

  • Decide who inherits what from your estate;
  • Take steps to provide for the care of your young children in the event of your untimely death;
  • Plan the manner in which certain people inherit from your estate so that their tax liability is minimised;
