Wills & Acceptance of Inheritance

This page is for anyone planning ahead for the succession of their estate, as well as anyone who needs to complete the process of accepting an inheritance. This is mainly advisory and notarial work.

Advisory / Drafting

Advisory / Drafting

Matters resolved through drafting or advisory work, without going to court.

  • Preparing and advising on a holographic will
  • Preparing a public or secret will
  • Estate planning through lifetime gifts and parental provisions
  • Notarial acceptance of inheritance and registration
  • Filing the inheritance tax return

What to expect

The inheritance tax return and the acceptance carry deadlines running from the death or the publication of the will. Organising the supporting documents in good time avoids surcharges and delays in registration.

What to bring to your first meeting

  • Identity details and tax number
  • A list of the assets to be disposed of or accepted
  • Any existing will or the property title deeds
