Why Do You Need a Will in the UAE?
Guardianship
To protect the Guardianship of your Children by nominating both permanent and temporary Guardians.
Assets Autonomy
To protect property, you own – as UAE Law applies to real estate owned by expatriates in the UAE. You are in control of your assets and to whom they go as opposed to under UAE Law where the distribution of assets is fixed. You have the freedom to distribute your assets as you wish– you can make specific gifts, i.e to a specific person or charity.
Business Succession Planning
As a business owner, it’s very important to consider business succession planning as part of Will’s process. Besides designating who is to benefit from your estate or shares, your Will also appoints your chosen executors who are responsible for the administration of your estate upon death.
Distribution of Assets as per your Wish
By having a valid Will in the UAE from a practical perspective the Courts in the UAE will be able to deal with the distribution of your assets, bank accounts, etc. with ease post-death as there is evidence of your intentions.
Avoid Family Disputes & Court Battles
Avoid family disputes and costly court battles, ultimately gives you peace of mind, that if the inevitable happens, your estate will be distributed by your wishes.

What our Clients Say About our Will Writing & Registration Services
DIFC FOUNDATION
The DIFC introduced the DIFC Foundation regime in 2018 (DIFC Law No.3 of 2018) as an alternative wealth structuring vehicle for both Muslim and Non-Muslim expats resident in the UAE and international investors that wish to protect their assets and family business in the UAE. A Foundation can be set up to hold a family business, real estate, assets such as artwork or for a charitable purpose. A DIFC Foundation is the most innovative way forward to control your assets in the UAE.
WHY SET UP A DIFC FOUNDATION?
As the UAE is a civil law jurisdiction, DIFC Foundations are becoming increasingly popular. One of the most attractive features is it allows you to own property in Dubai. DIFC Foundations are a legal entity which can hold wealth and assets on behalf of beneficiaries. International investors (non-residents) or residents of the UAE can structure their assets through a DIFC Foundation.
BENEFITS OF DIFC FOUNDATION?
- no corporation tax
- solid governance structure
