UAE Wills: Secure Your Legacy in Dubai
If you’re a non-Muslim and pass away without a registered non-Muslim will, your UAE assets may be distributed according to the country's pre-determined Sharia-based formula, which might not align with your wishes. This makes it crucial to have a UAE will, especially if you own property in Dubai, have a UAE company, children under the age of 21, a UAE bank account, or any other meaningful assets.
Kevin and his trusted Lawyers, can register your will with the DIFC Courts or Abu Dhabi Judicial Department ensuring your estate is managed according to your wishes, avoiding potential legal battles and financial hardship for your family during a difficult time.
Why You Need a Will in Dubai
Having a properly registered will in Dubai is essential for non-Muslim expats to protect their assets, and children, and provide clear instructions for their distribution. Without a valid UAE will, the default laws may apply, which could result in unintended consequences for your estate and beneficiaries.
