What could occur without a will?
Should you pass away without a Will, your assets will be frozen while the court looks over your estate and decides who will get the assets you own, which is time-consuming and stressful for your loved ones, but easy to avoid.
Your money and possessions
Everything will be divided amongst your living relatives which could lead to family feuds or a delay in appointing an executor to administer the estate.
Your children
The court will decide who will care for your children, and the money apportioned to them will go to the Guardian's Fund until they turn 18.
BENEFITS OF A WILL WITH FNB FIDUCIARY
