At Neves our goal is to give our client’s peace of mind that after their passing their affairs and wishes will be dealt in accordance with their faith yet valid under English Law. For example we aim to ensure that wills prepared on behalf of our Muslim clients are compliant with not only their faith but comply with the requirements of English Law.
