EXCALL LEGACY (PTY) LTD Wills & Estate Planning
Excall Legacy (Pty) Ltd, specialises in estate planning with an upfront review of taxes, estate duty and deceased estate administration fees to ensure that our clients are in a position to make well-informed decisions with regards to their estates, and to work with them actively to manage their legacy. We ensure that our client’s estates are well managed and liquid when they pass away, with a strong focus on generational wealth creation.
WHY DO YOU NEED A WILL:
Freedom of testation: Upholding a cornerstone of South African law of succession by preserving your right to bequeath assets.
Asset protection: A will guarantees your property and assets are given as per your wishes, avoiding potential inheritance by estranged family members.
Childcare assurance: In the absence of a will, a minor child's inheritance is held in the Guardian’s fund until they're 18. A will provides direction.
Legal clarity: Without a will, your estate decisions fall under the intestate succession act, potentially leading to undesired results.
Fiscal savings: A structured will can reduce estate duties and administration costs, ensuring maximum benefit for your heirs.
