Whether it's a will you need, a deceased estate to be administered or a trust to be formed and/or managed, we can help you. Apart from rendering these services, we can also assist and advise you and your clients on any of these matters.

COULD YOUR FAMILY BE RICH ON PAPER, BUT SHORT ON CASH?

It happens more often than many people realise.

A family inherits valuable property, investments or business interests — yet the executor tells them there isn't enough cash in the estate.

How can that be?

Because estate value and estate liquidity are two very different things.

Over the next few weeks, we'll explain why this matters and what you can do about it.

Celebrating Heritage. Strengthening Legacy.
On National Braai Day, we celebrate more than good food around the fire — we celebrate the people, traditions and stories that bring generations together.

The moments we share today become part of the legacy we leave tomorrow.

As we celebrate our South African heritage, it is also a reminder to protect the people and values that matter most through thoughtful estate planning and a properly drafted Will.

YOUR LEGACY DESERVES MORE THAN A WEEK
National Wills Week may have ended, but the importance of estate planning does not.

A will should change as your life changes — through marriage, children, property, business interests, loss and new beginnings.

The most valuable outcome of National Wills Week is not simply having a document.

It is starting a conversation about the legacy you intend to leave behind.

WHO WILL CARRY OUT YOUR WISHES?
Your will allows you to nominate the person or institution you wish to administer your estate.

Without a valid will, the person ultimately appointed may not be the person you would have chosen.

Estate planning is not only about deciding who receives what.

It is also about deciding who you trust to carry out your wishes.

PROFESSIONAL DRAFTING MATTERS
A will can fail not only because of what it says, but because of how it was drafted and executed.

Professional drafting helps ensure that the formal requirements are met, your wishes are clearly expressed and the document achieves what you intended it to achieve.

When it comes to your final wishes, clarity matters.

PUT YOUR WISHES IN WRITING
What happens to your home?

Who should administer your estate?

Who will care for your minor children?

How should the legacy you have built pass to the next generation?

Your will gives you the opportunity to answer some of life's most important questions in your own voice.

National Wills Week continues until Friday, 18 September.

⛳ A day on the greens. Memories beyond the course.

Golf brought us together. The people made it memorable. 💙

On 11 September, the Legatus Trust team swapped the office for the fairways, joined by our invited guests for a day of golf, laughter and good company.

From the swings on the course to the smiles in the golf carts and conversations at our sponsored stand, there was plenty worth capturing—and remembering! 📸

Thank you to our guests for sharing the day with us, everyone who stopped by our stand, and the organisers for bringing it all together. To our team who helped prepare and host: thank you for flying the Legatus flag with such enthusiasm.

Enjoy a little look back at the day. Recognise a familiar face? Give them a shout in the comments! 👇

WHAT IF THERE IS NO VALID WILL?
Without a valid will, your estate is distributed according to the Intestate Succession Act.

The law provides a framework — but it does not know your family, your relationships, your circumstances or the wishes you would have chosen to express.

A valid will allows your intentions to guide what happens to your estate.
