Wills
Making a Will ensures your assets are distributed as you'd wish them to be on your death.
You can also express your wishes about how your children will be cared for if you’re no longer around, rather than it being decided by the courts. It’s a legally-binding document that can help avoid potential family disputes and lengthy probate delays.
If you die without a Will, there are certain rules that dictate how your estate will be divided. If you’re living with a partner, but not married, they won’t automatically inherit from you. If you have children, you can make provision for them in your Will. It’s also possible to leave money to charity in your Will, which could reduce the amount of inheritance tax payable on your estate.
Obviously your circumstances will change as you get older and this could affect the validity of your Will. That’s why it’s important to review it regularly and make updates that reflect your new circumstances.
