WILLS & PROBATE

Wills, Estate Planning & Succession

At ODS Solicitors LLP located in Cork, Ireland we have developed a significant expertise in the area of Wills, Probate and Succession Planning.  We have knowledge and experience in advising clients with significant assets including where the assets are multi-jurisdictional.  We can advise you of the most tax efficient ways in dealing with your Estate at will drafting stage. We have acted in Estate matters which entailed complicated rules and we can assist and guide you in identifying beneficiaries if necessary.

It is of the utmost importance for everyone to have a Will.  Your Will not only determines who you wish to be guardians to your children but it also determines who shall receive what from your Estate.

At ODS Solicitors LLP, we have considerable drafting experience and we will advise you in advance of any issues which may arise in terms of tax implications and tax planning.

Both partners regularly advise clients in respect of Enduring Powers of Attorney which have become increasingly popular over the last number of years.

Furthermore, there has been an increase in enquiries in relation to both EPA’s and Estate Planning as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic with many clients focusing on getting their estate in order. We can offer a full service to clients in this area of planning.  An Enduring Power of Attorney must be executed when you have full capacity and will determine who will make decisions about your care and financial wellbeing without the necessity to involve the Wards of Court office in the event that you no longer have capacity to make decisions yourself.  Contact us to discuss the benefits of Enduring Powers of Attorney.
