Information on contingency and estate
As long as you are fit and healthy, you will always make your own decisions about what is important and significant to you. However, what happens if you become incapable of judgement? This is why you should plan ahead and determine, for example with an advance health care directive, a health care proxy or a will, what will happen if you are no longer able to make decisions in future.
Our information on contingency and estate will help you to deal with all the important questions today in order to ensure that your wishes are also adhered to in future.
How do I write a will and who are my legal heirs?
Your family situation will determine who your legal heirs are after your death. Your heirs will come first in the line of succession. Your spouse or your registered partner will inherit together with your heirs. However, the divisible portion provides scope for your own instructions.
