One document to protect your life's work and legacy
If you don't decide how your assets are divided
among your loved ones when you die, someone else will.
The good news is that we are living longer - our life expectancy is increasing.
However, every day in Botswana around 80 people pass away.
Each one of those people leaves behind dependents and assets:
Livestock
Properties
Vehicles
Family Heirlooms & Collectables
Investment Assets
Companies
Provide for your loved ones
in their darkest hour
When you have a Will, your grieving family and
loved-ones get automatic, legally-protected rights to inherit your assets without arguments, disputes or outside intervention.
If you don't have a Will, your life's work may well be eroded by taxes, legal delays and outside interference.
Protect your children
from beyond the grave
If parents pass away together, a guardian will be appointed by the State who will become responsible for all your children’s daily needs.
That means their food, housing, health care, education and clothing.
If you have your Will prepared by an expert, you can control who that guardian will be.
If not, your children's future hangs in the balance.
Dying Intestate
If you die without a Will, you die Intestate. This means that the law controls what happens to your assets.
This can have various disastrous consequences.
Not least of which is that your spouse may only receive a child’s portion of your assets. (So for example, if you have four children, your surviving spouse would only keep one fifth of your assets)

Vanessa Mphathi on what happens to your assets when you die
“After completing my Will, I felt great peace and contentment. This exercise has improved my relationship with my son as my sole beneficiary and his given me greater daily focus in the execution of my plans for him. Great service and turnaround time from SCI WEALTH.”
“It was a huge relief to have our Wills completed. Knowing we have our Wills in place means that our children will have an easier time navigating things in the future.
To have to think of worst-case scenarios is terrible, but as a parent, we must make sure we have kept our children as protected as possible. Our well written Wills helps us to do that. Thank you to James Fern and his team for their work towards our completed Wills. ”
“My Estate Planner at SCI WEALTH took the time to understand me. It was a big relief to have
my Will completed by an expert. I now have my financial affairs in good order.”
“I feel very relieved to have a Will in place. I do not feel worried about will happen to my dependents after my demise.
The Will has made me to be more focused about life and work as this will ensure that there will be more assets for distribution in the Estate”
