MANILA, Philippines - The fear of many grandparents, parents and families who worked so hard for their wealth is for it to end up in the hands of bad relatives and outside predators in case of their death or incapacity. To address this issue, the Center for Global Best Practices will run a one-day pioneering seminar titled, “Families’ Guide to Wills, Trusts & Inheritance,” scheduled on Sept. 18, 2015 at the EDSA Shangri-La Hotel, Mandaluyong City. When you want to spare your loved ones of the burden of dividing and even quarrelling over your estate, or the pain of having to pay for the unnecessary legal costs and taxes, one should write a will or create a living trust. When you don’t have one, you run the risk of your assets going to waste. Others attempt to write a will without proper guidance. But writing a defective will is as good as having no will. In many instances, this becomes a subject of long, painful litigation.
This seminar will provide you and your family a practical guide on will writing the right way and creating living trusts that addresses properly the many issues including the care of minor children or your parents and other loved ones after your death, or care for you in case you are incapacitated, guardianships, administration of your estate, and many more!
