Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need a will?
Without a will, your estate is distributed according to Nigerian intestacy laws, which may not reflect your wishes. A will ensures your assets go to the people and causes you choose.
What is the difference between a will and a trust?
A will takes effect on death and goes through probate. A trust can operate during your lifetime and after death, and avoids probate. Both have advantages depending on your circumstances.
How often should I update my will?
You should review your will after major life events — marriage, divorce, birth of children, significant changes in assets. We recommend a review every 3-5 years.
