Wills

A well-structured Will not only specifies how your assets will be distributed but also appoints guardians for your young children and outlines your funeral wishes. By taking the time to create a Will, you can provide clarity and reduce potential disputes among family members during a challenging time. Our legal team is here to simplify the process and ensure that all aspects of your Will is thoughtfully addressed.

We can help with:

• Will preparation;

• Memorandum of Wishes (a way to provide guidance to your chosen trustees/executors);

• Living Wills/Directives.

A Will does not need to be complicated, yet it is something many people put off completing.  If you pass away without a Will, it can be stressful for the loved ones you leave behind.

At Toner Law, we understand that every individual’s situation is different, which is why we take a personalised approach to each Will we prepare. We’ll walk you through the necessary steps, from discussing your wishes to ensuring all legal requirements are met. Our goal is to make the process as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
