Included in all services
The “When I die” folder
Your family picks up one folder and knows where your assets are, what you owe and what you value. One Will service fee covers all five; the four beside your Will are complimentary.
Our Will services
An Individual Will for one person, a Pair Will for couples and an audit of a Will written elsewhere.
Individual Will
One Will, drafted with you at home by a Certified Will Writer, with the “When I die” folder.
- Executors, guardians and gifts namedWe name who carries out your Will, who raises your children and who receives what, each with a substitute.
- Free lawyer Certified True Copy upon probateWhen the time comes, a lawyer certifies a copy of your Will for your executor's probate application.
- Second original kept safe by usAs a goodwill gesture, we keep a second signed original, so your family has one if the other is lost.
Pair Will for couples
Two Wills for a couple, drafted together in one visit, so both sets of wishes match.
- The same guardians named in both WillsBoth parents name the same guardians and substitutes, so your children have one plan.
- No conflicting clausesBoth Wills are drafted together, so one does not undo the other.
- A plan if you both die togetherA survivorship clause sets who inherits if you die at the same time or close together.
Will audit
Your existing Will checked against your wishes today, and for gaps a Will drafted to instruction can miss.
- Your Will matches your wishes todayWe check the Will still carries out what you want, for your family as it is now. Marriage revokes an earlier Will unless it was made with that marriage in mind.
- Planned the most efficient wayWe check the executors, guardians and gifts, and the CPF and insurance nominations that pass outside your Will.
- Implications anticipatedWe review the Will through an estate planner's lens and set out what could affect your family later.
- Audit fee waived with a new WillThe Will audit carries a fee. If you draft a new Will with Alps Wills®, the audit fee is waived.
FAQ
How much does it cost to write a Will in Singapore with Alps Wills®?
Contact Alps Wills® for the fee, as it depends on whether a testamentary trust is needed. Without a testamentary trust, it is a flat rate.
What happens if I die without a Will in Singapore?
Your family will need to apply for a Letter of Administration, and your estate is divided according to the Intestate Succession Act rather than your own wishes.
What makes a Will valid in Singapore?
It must be in writing, made by a person aged 21 or above, signed at the foot by the testator, and witnessed by two witnesses present at the same time. A witness must not be a beneficiary or a beneficiary's spouse.
Does Alps Wills® offer will writing with a home visit?
Yes. A home visit is included in every Will package. You can also meet us at a nearby mall or online, in English, Mandarin, Thai or Tagalog.
Will writer vs lawyer in Singapore: what is the difference?
A Will Writer drafts Wills; a lawyer can also act in court. Alps Wills® is not a law firm. Our Certified Will Writers draft your Will, and our partner lawyers handle probate, Letter of Administration and LPA Form 2.
What is included in the Will package?
A home visit, LPA setup, a lawyer-certified true copy upon probate, a CPF nomination review and a Schedule of Assets and Liabilities. As a goodwill gesture, we also keep your second original safe.
