Frequently Asked Questions
We recommend that you write a Will for each country in which you hold assets. If one of those countries is India, we can help you.
We have partnered with WillJini, a company based in India to provide Wills written under the laws of India.
These can be used if you are now living in India but have come from another country, or if you are originally from India,
and now living in the UK. If you still have assets in India, you can write a Will to cover those assets, and this Last Will and Testament works alongside any UK Will.

You need a Will for every country in which you hold assets.
If you have a Will, it must be validated through the process of probate in the country in which the assets are held.
The probate process also grants your Executor the authority to act as your estate administrator.
This allows them to gather your assets and distribute them according to the instructions in your Will.
Probate happens in each country in which you hold assets, so you need a Will written under the laws of each country in which you hold assets.
We offer the Expat Will service to allow you to prepare a Will for assets held in the UK, US, Canada and now India in collaboration with WillJini.
For example:
- If you are living in the UK and have assets held in the UK, but you also have assets in India, you can use the WillJini.com service to create your Indian Will for your Indian assets.
- If you are from India and now living in the UK, and need a Will to cover your Indian assets, you can use the WillJini.com service to create a Will, whether or not you have a Will in your country of residence.
