Wills & Estates
Preparing for your death isn't as ghoulish as it seems. Your loved ones will be doing it tough when your life ends, so the better organised you are, the less mess they'll have to clean up. A valid will that is carefully considered during your lifetime will ensure the people you want to be beneficiaries of your estate will know your wishes. If you die without a will, you will have no say in who gets what. Life is complex, so if you've ended up with a blended family, it is important to get the right advice about your will to keep unwanted individuals from making a claim against your estate.
If you've been named the executor in a will, there's likely a bewildering amount of tasks you'll need to attend to. Venus & Smart can ease that burden. It's our priority to sort out your estate matter as swiftly as possible, so your life stays steady.
There's times when no matter the reason, you might end up in a fight over someone's estate. It's stressful and it's likely to be ugly, so you really need to trust someone who knows when to settle and when to keep the pressure on. At Venus & Smart, we've been on both sides of the battle. If it's not worth the contest, we'll let you know. Otherwise, we'll be right behind you all the way to the courtroom showdown.
