“Wills and guardianship for non-Muslim expatriates fall under family law in the UAE. The family lawyers team at HT Lawyers & Law Firm helps you with every family-related legal aspect including but not limited to inheritance, wills, guardianship and estate planning.”
Registering a will and guardianship under jurisdiction is necessary for expatriates in the UAE. Only by doing so will your assets be distributed as per your choice on death. If your will is unregistered under any one of three jurisdictions, your assets will be divided and distributed to your family as per Sharia law.
Our experienced wills and guardianship lawyers first educate you on the laws that govern your assets post your death. Our wills and guardianship lawyers inform you of the various legalities surrounding your will’s execution in the UAE. This includes your assets in any emirate of the UAE and worldwide. Our wills and guardianship lawyers are also well-experienced in preparing and registering wills as per the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) Wills and Probate Registry.
When you approach us for this particular query, our wills and guardianship lawyers will expertly take you through the entire process of registering your will and guardianship particulars in the UAE legal system. Our lawyers will take the time to sit with you and collect all the relevant information needed to draft your will according to your wishes. After this, they will prepare your final will and make sure that it is up to date.
As for the guardianship particulars, you may state the details and our guardianship lawyers in Dubai will make the necessary legal documents expressing this wish. This guardianship applies only to kids under 21 years of age and who are residents of the UAE. Upon your demise, our wills and guardianship lawyers will execute your will and guardianship provisions to save your grieving family from the trouble of lengthy and complex legal matters.
While drafting the provisions of your will and guardianship, our family lawyers in Dubai take extreme care to ensure that everything is up to an excellent standard. During this process, they will guide you and offer you valuable input that will help your family in the event of your demise. Upon drafting the necessary documentation, our family lawyers will then register your will and guardianship will with one of three recognised jurisdictions in the UAE. This includes the DIFC, Non-Muslims Will Registry under Abu Dhabi Judicial Department and Will Registration under Dubai Notary.
After your will and guardianship have been registered with the authorities, our team of well-experienced will and guardianship lawyers will ensure that when the time comes, all provisions will be executed as per your wish and all the terms and conditions are met.
