“Death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate.” Over a century later, Ambrose Bierce’s words still ring true today if you have not taken steps during lifetime to plan for what happens to your estate on death. Without proper estate and tax planning, your loved ones may find themselves embroiled in lengthy and costly litigation, both in monetary terms and family relationships. It is, therefore, essential that you take professional advice to ensure the preservation of your assets, family harmony, and the ability to exert control over the ultimate destination of your estate.
