Estate planning and protecting assets

You probably want to keep your estate planning simple, right? But you just don’t know what you don’t know.

Estate planning is about more than writing a will. It is about ensuring your intentions are understood, your assets are protected, and your family is spared unnecessary stress after you are gone. If you want to avoid leaving behind a mess, it is important not to leave these matters to chance.

One thing we know for certain is that free wills or cheap online will-kits can cost much more than you might think, even if they claim to be “reviewed by an online legal team”. None of these methods gives you experience-informed advice about the options that are open to you to maximise the value for your legacy.

The value of our estate planning service is that we do not just fill out a form, call it a will, then cross our fingers that it is going to be okay for our clients.

A will on its own may or may not achieve what you want and intend.

We are determined to help our clients achieve their goals by being informed about the options that are available to them and ensuring that all the essential elements line up. In addition to the will, we consider all the other things that affect outcomes. That is the value of estate planning.

An estate plan crafted with you to meet your individual circumstances provides you with a set of legal documents that are much more likely to achieve your wishes and to save bucketloads of money for the people you intend to benefit.

An estate plan with The Will & All provides you with:

Comparing the cost of a will with the value of an estate plan is like comparing the cost of a house built without proper foundations with a house built on solid foundations. A will without an appropriate estate plan could collapse without warning, but an estate plan that is built on solid foundations, achieved through careful consultation with you, will result in an outcome that achieves your goals.

A will that is part of a carefully considered estate plan ensures that your wishes and intentions are far more likely to create enduring benefits for your chosen people.
