CSA supports clients with estate planning matters in the UAE, helping individuals and families put in place appropriate legal arrangements to protect assets, clarify intentions, and support long-term succession planning.
We understand that estate planning is both a personal and practical matter. Our role is to help make the process more structured, straightforward, and well-managed.
Will Options in the UAE:
DIFC Wills:
For non-Muslims in the UAE, DIFC Wills provide a clear and reliable estate planning solution based on common law principles. They can cover both movable and immovable assets and are available to eligible individuals regardless of residency status. DIFC Wills are often preferred for their structured framework and efficient probate process.
Overseas Wills:
For individuals with assets outside the UAE, Overseas Wills help ensure international estates are distributed according to personal wishes. They are useful for addressing cross-border legal requirements and supporting smoother succession planning across multiple jurisdictions.
Muslim Wills:
Muslim expatriates in the UAE may register Muslim Wills through the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department (ADJD). These Wills can help define beneficiaries, asset distribution, and guardianship arrangements in accordance with applicable legal and Islamic inheritance considerations.
ADJD Wills:
ADJD Wills are a practical estate planning option for expatriates living in the UAE or holding UAE-based assets. Registered through the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department, they help provide clarity around asset distribution and support more structured succession planning.
