Benefits of Estate Planning and Wills

At Gittens, de Beer & Associates, our lawyers understand that deciding who will inherit your assets is an important part of planning for the future. Smart estate planning can not only protect your family but also help your heirs from overpaying taxes. Learn about the other advantages of will and estate planning in Newfoundland:

If you do not create a will, your estate will be distributed according to provincial laws, which may or may not represent the best possible outcome for your family and loved ones. Drafting a will ensures that the distribution of your estate will be according to your intentions and preferences. Our lawyer can provide the right legal advice by helping you choose who will inherit your assets.

While creating a will with the help of our lawyer, you can also choose your personal estate representative. This representative is responsible for making financial and healthcare decisions on your behalf if an accident or mental health issues leave you incapacitated.

A will can give you peace of mind and prevent your demise from becoming a reason for discords, legal disputes and a burden on your family and loved ones.
