Estate Planning is integral to a family’s wellbeing and the implications of not planning before death could materially prejudice the financial security of dependants and other family members after death. Taking expert advice ensures maximum benefit during a client’s lifetime and after death.
The importance, therefore, of effective Estate Planning should never be underestimated and at ENS (Edward Nathan Sonnenbergs) our many years of experience ensures that clients receive the best possible planning advice and guidance. The formation of Trusts and the drafting of Wills, needs specialised expertise given the many aspects and varieties available, as well as tax, investment and estate duty implications. As a full-service law firm, the highly trained and experienced lawyers and paralegals at ENS are well equipped to assist.
In addition to personal planning, this department also handles the administration of deceased estates; the administration of trusts (testamentary or inter vivos) and the administration of personally owned assets attended to by trained and experienced practitioners in liaison with investment advisors such as stockbrokers, property experts and the like. Meticulous books and records are kept and financial statements and minutes prepared by special purpose clerks and data processors.
