This February, the best gift you can give to those you love is certainty and protection for their future. Life is filled with unpredictable events, and while we live life in the present, it is best to prepare for the unexpected.
Why should you create or update your will?
- To ensure your wishes are honoured
- To protect your loved ones’ future (guardianship for minors and pets)
- To minimize family disputes
- To decrease tax liabilities placed on your estate
- To facilitate your business succession planning
- For reassurance and piece of mind
Who should have a will?
A will is an essential document everyone should have, no matter their life stage, family size, age, or the value of their assets.
If you own a house or a business, are a newlywed or just celebrated 30 years of marriage, have kids or pets, participate in a charity that is close to your heart, belong to a community you love, or have friends that you call family, you should create or update your will to secure their future.
