Overview
Thinking about death is not pleasant but planning for your death is vital. In South Africa, between 70% and 75% of people die without a will, which causes additional stress for your family in an already tough and emotional time. In addition, winding up a deceased estate can be a daunting experience with various financial and legal obligations.
KINLINK provides you with valuable resources to assist you in drawing up a valid will and winding up a deceased estate.
Wills
We often overlook the importance of not only leaving a will, but a VALID will. A will need not be complicated, but it is important that it specifies clearly what your wishes are post your death and complies with the necessary legislation to ensure it is valid.
Estate
Winding up a deceased estate can be a lengthy and costly process if not well understood or managed. The legal requirements to finalise a deceased’s estate are very specific to the estimated size of the estate and the wishes of the deceased in the case of a valid will, or legislation where no valid will exists.
Information & Resources
KINLINK provides information and resources to assist you to draw up a valid will. It covers why you need a will, what a will is and what makes it valid, who the parties to a will are and how you can make it as easy as possible to administer your estate.
KINLINK also provides guidance and resources to the next-of-kin to wind up a deceased estate. This includes establishing whether there is a valid will, calculating the value of the estate, reporting the death to the Master of the High Court, the appointment of executors and the winding up process.
