Will making

[qhong61]

If one does not have any next-of-kin left and did not inform anyone about the will, how will the law firm find out about the death?

Friend....

You can engage the service of a wills writing and custodian company to safe-keep your will and also be your executors too.

Any recommendation?

I'm thinking of giving away to charity. So beneficiary is not a person.

Who is the executor of your will?

Take note.. dying alone no count. A death cert is required to start the whole process.

If u go climb Mt Faber and never come down, technically u are not dead.

Any recommendation?

Though the dead tells no tales, the dead person with a will should always leave behind a body so that his will can speak to the living.

Serious? Original or copy?

 

[qhong61]

Yeah, I also wonder how that's going to work out.

The reason why I'm thinking of getting a law firm to be executor is bcos I dun trust my family to do it, since I'm thinking of not leaving anything for them in my will They can just throw my will away and rely on the law to get a share

Quite true ...

 

[henrylbh]

Never heard of lawyer absconding?

 

[mummy1234]

Can someone define the legal terms?

 

[Mr. Wood]

Serious? Original or copy?

give copy. but oso tell them (the executors) where and how to retrieve the original when the day comes. but dun lock somewhere like in certis cisco locked safe until they cannot access. locked drawer in your home is maybe good enuff.

One option is to just leave it to intestate succession act.

Or make yr own arrangements in yr dying days.

Like transfer money between banks yrself.

Set up joint accounts for shares.

Set up jt accounts for bank money.

Sometimes better not to make a will.

Because often u might change yr mind about who inherits what.

And if u make a will, be too transparent, there r certain risks.

The Online Will Generator utilises a basic Will template and has been prepared upon the advice and with the assistance of Hin Tat Augustine & Partners and does not necessarily deal with every important topic or nor cover every aspect of the topics with which it deals. The Online Will Generator is intended for general use only and does not contain or convey any legal or other advice. You should seek legal advice from appropriately qualified lawyers for more specific Will requirements (e.g. Islamic law, persons under 21, not residing in Singapore etc.).

for basic will, shud be enuff. but everyone has diff objectives and consideration. and after seeing few cases, it is always good to word the will such dat it is understood in the legal circle rather than wht is understood by other common pple.

This is a poor advice. The cost and time for intestate act to distribute your estate is considerably higher. A basic will is better than no will in most cases.

As u said, in most cases but not all cases.

Often after one makes a will, there will be unhappiness, so have to be careful of who u tell the contents of the will to.
