MEDIA: protecting heirs from complications when making a will

When a loved one passes away, their estate is divided and distributed among the deceased’s heirs, typically children and grandchildren. Frequently, however, disputes arise due to the absence of a valid will or the existence of an unclear or ambiguous testament.

To prevent problems in future, it is essential to understand the legal procedures involved in drafting a will, the various types of will recognised by law, and the requirements necessary to ensure that the will is valid and enforceable.
