The drafting of all documents is at all times an art. In the case of the drafting of Wills, skill in the use of words is not enough; it must be combined with a thorough knowledge of Testamentary Law.
While the drafting may adequately provide for the devolution desired by the Testator, the form in which the bequest is made may involve consequences flowing from the Law of Wills which may have consequences neither contemplated nor desired by the Testator.
Malherbe Rigg and Ranwell Incorporated have a dedicated Wills and Estates Department and have been servicing the public in this field as in other fields of Law for the past 120 years.
MRR is supporting the initiative of the Law Society of the Northern Provinces and will during Wills Week be drafting and supplying free Wills to any person who wishes to have one done.
In the words of Jeff Matthee, a Director of Malherbe Rigg and Ranwell Incorporated, “any person over the age of 16, who owns any assets, is in need of a Will”.
Anyone who wishes to have a Will done, may phone Christina Cothill (011) 918-4116 (ext 253) in order to make an appointment (even if it is after Wills Week).
