Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that estate planning raises many questions. Here are answers to some common inquiries.
When should I consider preparing a will?
Estate planning is appropriate whenever you have assets or dependants you wish to provide for. Many people find it helpful to create their first will when they acquire property, marry, or have children. It's worth reviewing your will periodically as circumstances change, particularly after significant life events.
What information do I need to prepare for our consultation?
It's helpful to have considered your assets, including property, investments, and personal items of significance. You might also think about who you would trust as executor and any specific wishes for asset distribution. We can discuss these matters during our consultation to ensure we understand your intentions clearly.
How long does the will preparation process take?
The timeframe depends on the complexity of your circumstances and how quickly you can review draft documents. For straightforward situations, we can typically complete the process within two to three weeks from our initial consultation. More complex arrangements may require additional time for careful consideration.
What is the difference between a will and a trust?
A will provides instructions for asset distribution after your passing, while a trust is a legal arrangement that can operate during your lifetime and beyond. Trusts can offer benefits for asset protection, tax planning, and providing for dependants with ongoing needs. We can discuss whether a trust would be appropriate for your circumstances.
How do you ensure privacy and confidentiality?
We maintain strict confidentiality as required by professional regulations. Your personal information and estate planning details are protected through secure storage systems and careful handling procedures. We discuss your matters only with you and those you authorize, ensuring your privacy throughout the process.
What are the fees for estate planning services?
Our fees vary depending on the complexity of your requirements. Will preparation begins at HKD 1,950, while trust establishment and estate administration support have different pricing structures. We provide clear fee information during our initial consultation, so you can make informed decisions about proceeding.
