Will under BVI law

Open pricing. The final quote is fixed in writing before work starts.

Assets in the BVI - first of all shares in companies incorporated there - pass to heirs under BVI law. Without a dedicated will for this jurisdiction, heirs have to go through the local process relying on foreign documents, which makes it noticeably longer and harder. A separate BVI-law will is worth having for anyone who owns companies or other assets there.

We draft a will that covers specifically your BVI assets and does not conflict with wills made in other countries. The work includes reviewing your assets, preparing the text, arranging execution in line with local requirements and, where needed, a witness affidavit - a document that later simplifies proving the will. We do not promise how long a future probate will take: that depends on the court and the specific circumstances.

FAQ

I already have a will in my home country. Why do I need a BVI one?
BVI assets go through the local process, where a foreign will works poorly: it needs to be legalised and proven. A dedicated BVI-law will makes the process simpler and more predictable for your heirs.
Will a BVI-law will conflict with my other wills?
We draft it to cover only your BVI assets, without revoking wills made for other jurisdictions. Keeping the documents consistent with each other is part of our job.
What is a witness affidavit and why is it needed?
It is a sworn written statement by a witness to the signing of the will. Prepared in advance, it later makes it easier to prove that the will was properly executed.
