Wills & estates

Put your intentions into a clear legal conversation.

Ralehoma Attorneys’ participation in the Law Society of South Africa’s National Wills Week 2026 provides an independently verifiable foundation for this service pathway.

Planning ahead

Before discussing a will

A useful first meeting starts with the people and practical facts that matter most. You do not need to arrive with every answer.

  • Your full identity and contact details
  • Spouse/partner and dependants
  • People or causes you want to benefit
  • A broad overview of major assets and liabilities
  • Any existing will or estate-planning documents
  • Questions about executors, guardians or special circumstances

The appropriate legal structure depends on individual circumstances. This website does not provide personal legal advice.

After a death

Make the first estate conversation easier.

The administration process can depend heavily on the estate, documents and family circumstances. Start by collecting facts—not by trying to solve the law yourself.

01

Identity & death details

Keep the deceased’s identification information and death-related documentation together.

02

Will & family

Locate any existing will and note immediate family, dependants and relevant contact details.

03

Assets & liabilities

Create a high-level inventory of property, accounts, vehicles, policies, debts and other known interests.
