Estate Planning Handbook
₱1,250.00In my profession, I have come across several people who are having problems with disposing certain properties which are still under the name of their long-deceased relative. The relative is usually a parent, a grandparent, an uncle, an aunt, or even a sibling. In other cases, I also encounter siblings quarrelling amongst themselves or even with their surviving parent. Such situations are truly heartbreaking to say the least. These kinds of problems usually arise due to the failure of the surviving relatives, who are more often than not the legal heirs, to pay the necessary estate tax and settle the estate of the decedent. However, are the heirs the only ones to blame? Definitely not. The decedent, while living, likewise has a part, if not more parts, to play in ensuring that his descendants or heirs do not have a difficult time in acquiring the inheritance he had left for them to enjoy. Now, this is where sound estate planning comes in.
