Estate Planning
The lawyers in this Practice Group have extensive experience in the law and practice on probate and administration, including Muslim law of succession and inheritance, in both contentious and non-contentious actions. Where the gross value of the estate exceeds $3million, the probate matters fall within the jurisdiction of the High Court. Determining the value of the deceased's assets and complying with the formalities of the Estate Duty Act can be a complex exercise, especially where the beneficiaries or next-of-kin have little clue as to the true extent of the assets and liabilities of the deceased. This is where our team of dedicated and meticulous staff and lawyers have the necessary blend of expertise and compassion to advise and ensure that the entire process be as smooth and possible for the bereaved families. Through our overseas contacts, we are adept at handling cases where the deceased died domiciled outside Singapore and also where the deceased left immovable properties outside Singapore.
