If you own assets in Dubai or anywhere else in the UAE, making a will is a sensible way to protect them. It lets you decide who receives what, and it lowers the chance of disagreements within your family later on.
Without a will, the UAE courts decide who inherits, usually by applying Sharia law or the law of your home country, and bank accounts can be frozen until probate is granted. A registered will makes inheritance matters far simpler for the people you leave behind.
We help you choose the right registration route, prepare a will that reflects your wishes and guide it through to registration.
Three simple steps take you from a first conversation to a registered will.
