To begin creating your will, Golden Leaves suggests considering a number of important planning issues.

They suggest that you consider whether as an expat you are concerned about long-term care fees and managing your care options for when you are older.  They also say that you should consider what will happen to your assets if your partner remarries after your death and making sure that your children still receive what you intended.
