Seminar on will writing, trusts and inheritance

MANILA, Philippines – As we remember our dearly departed loved ones when we commemorated and trooped to the cemetery last All Soul’s Day, we think about our own mortality and we ask ourselves if we have already prepared for it. Do we have a “Last Will and Testament?”

To help you with this, the Center for Global Best Practices will hold a one-day pioneering seminar entitled, “Families’  Guide to Wills, Trusts & Inheritance: Will-Writing, Trust-Making and Inheritance Giving the Right Way,” on Tuesday, Dec. 2 at The Bellevue Hotel, Filinvest Corporate City, Muntinlupa, Philippines.

The fear of many grandparents, parents and families who worked so hard for their wealth is for it to end up in the hands of bad relatives and outside predators in case of their death or incapacity. When you want to spare your loved ones of the burden of dividing and even quarrelling over your estate, or the pain of having to pay for the unnecessary legal costs and taxes, one should write a will or create a living trust. It is the right thing to do. When you don’t have one, you run the risk of your assets going to waste. Others attempt to write a will without proper guidance. But writing a defective will is as good as having no will. In many instances, this becomes a subject of long, painful litigation.

The one-day seminar will provide a practical guide on will-writing the right way and creating living trusts properly addresses the many issues including the care of minor children or your parents and other loved ones after your death, or care for you in case you are incapacitated, guardianships, administration of your estate, and many more!
