Admission
Advocate of the High Court of Tanzania

Lucas advises on wills, estate administration, family property and succession, usually for clients who want it handled discreetly.

He works with families on wills, estates and the succession regime that applies to them, and takes the time to explain what a grant will and will not do. Much of the work is quiet and unhurried by design.

Recent experience

Acting for the executors of an estate holding both company shares and family land, through to distribution.

Drafting wills and guardianship arrangements for a family with assets in Tanzania and abroad.

Advising on which succession regime applied to an estate, and on the court with jurisdiction over the petition.

Perspective

“A will only covers what passes under it. The rest has to be dealt with separately, while there is still time.”
