One of life's 'must haves' is a Will, yet surprisingly many New Zealanders don’t have this key document. One that simply says what you’d like to have happen to your money and possessions when you die. Get your Will sorted TODAY.
Why do I need a will?
A Will enables you to determine which people and/or organisations will receive your assets when you pass away, as well as who will manage this process. A Will also allows you to make other specific directions, such as the appointment of guardians for your children. A Will can save considerable time and cost with the administration of your estate and can also provide assurance to your family and friends that your assets are being dealt with as you would have wished.
What happens if I die without a will?
If you die without a Will you are deemed to have died 'intestate', and your assets will be distributed in accordance with the Administration Act (1969). The Administration Act prescribes which of your family members are to receive what, and in what shares. This process is inflexible and often results in a distribution of assets that does not align with what people might have wanted or expected. This can also be a costly process and can cause considerable distress both to those who are trying to manage your affairs as well as to your wider family members.
