How It Works

Estate Planning Consultation

We discuss your assets, family situation and wishes in detail to design an estate plan that reflects your intentions, minimises disputes and complies with applicable personal law.

Will Drafting

We draft a comprehensive, unambiguous Will in plain English and applicable personal law format, clearly identifying all assets, beneficiaries, guardians for minors and the executor.

Registration (Recommended)

We assist in registering the Will at the Sub-Registrar's office, which creates a permanent record and significantly reduces the risk of the Will being challenged as forged or invalid.

Probate & Administration

After the testator's death, we file for probate in the High Court if required, obtain letters of administration for intestate estates and advise beneficiaries on asset transfer and succession.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, but dying without a Will means your assets are distributed under personal succession law which may not match your wishes and can cause family disputes.

Is a Will mandatory in India?

Does a Will need to be registered?

Registration is not mandatory but strongly recommended — it creates an official record that is difficult to challenge as forged, tampered or undiscovered.

What is probate?

Probate is a High Court order confirming the validity of a Will and granting the executor the authority to administer the estate. It is compulsory in certain situations and where required by banks before releasing assets.

Can a Will be challenged after death?

Yes. A Will can be contested on grounds of lack of testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud or improper execution. A professionally drafted and registered Will is far less susceptible to challenge.
