They say that there are no certainties in life except for death and taxes. While no one cannot fully prepare when you are called, you can save your loved ones from struggles, strained relationships, and unnecessary liabilities of leaving them earthly possessions and properties. Estate Planning is the key to maintaining harmonious relationship between your loved ones and the smooth transition of your properties.
According to the Civil Code of the Philippines, succession occurs at the precise moment of death and the heirs are legally deemed to have acquired ownership thereof. However, this provision does not necessarily shield the heirs from unnecessary conflicts and liabilities. The Heirs, in the absence of a will or testament, will have to either judicially and/or extrajudicially settle your estate for them to transfer titles to your properties and pay taxes accordingly, as this will be required by the government agencies before processing the transfer.
The Firm handles legal issues on Wills and Succession. The Firm offers its services for the following:
Settlement of Estate (Judicial or Extra-Judicial)
