The questions clients
actually ask.
- Do I need a will if I have nominees on all my accounts?
- Yes. Nominees are trustees, not beneficiaries — they hold assets until the legal heir is determined. Without a will, the actual distribution follows inheritance law, which may not reflect your wishes.
- How is a private family trust different from a will?
- A trust transfers assets during your lifetime and avoids probate entirely. It offers stronger asset protection, confidentiality, and continuity of management — ideal for complex or high-value estates.
- I'm an NRI. Which country's laws apply to my Indian assets?
- Indian law governs assets situated in India, regardless of your residential status. However, tax implications in your country of residence depend on your domicile and applicable tax treaties — we coordinate both.
