Wills

The significant document will be conveniently edited to make it easier for the heirs to understand and carry out your wishes on the best side.
A will is the safest way to take care of the division of the estate according to the will of the deceased. Israeli law recognizes four different types of wills, the execution of which is entrusted to the Registrar of Inheritance in the Ministry of Justice.

The will must be prepared in the best and clearest way by a professional lawyer who specializes in the field to prevent mistakes that cannot be corrected after the death of the mitzvah.
Common mistakes in writing a will:
Handwritten will: A written will cannot be printed with a handwritten signature. The entire will must be in the handwriting of the mitzvah only
Presence of the beneficiaries: A person whom the testator wishes to register as a beneficiary cannot be present at the time of writing the will or take an active part in it.
A will can always be changed: even if the testator has explicitly stated that no change will be made to it in the future
Minors: cannot write a will as the law recognizes their will from the age of 18 and up.
Will deposit:
The deposit of the will in the Office of the Registrar of Inheritance Matters ensures that no inheritance order or will execution order will be issued after the death of the mitzvah while ignoring the will he left. A person applying for a will should physically approach the Office of the Registrar of Inheritance Matters in his area of residence, along with the original will, identity card, and fee voucher.
A person who has previously deposited a will, may not deposit an additional will unless he has taken back any will he has deposited. The will is kept in a safe, and only the mitzvah can be accepted back.
Only after the death of the mitzvah can details be found out about a will that has been deposited, together with a death certificate and a breakdown of the degree of sacrifice to the deceased.
There is great importance to the lawyer drafting the will to be knowledgeable in the details, regulations and the will to be written clearly and unambiguously.
