Why do I need to make a Will?

Wills are not just about money but also about meeting responsibilities and securing the future for your dependants.

If you die without a Will then the law decides how the property is divided among your family. This may be in a way you would not wish. Leaving a properly drawn Will can:

• Help your family to deal with your affairs at a time when they will find it difficult to cope.
• Ensure that you appoint an executor of your choice to deal with all the paperwork and procedures and that appropriate guardians are appointed to look after your children.
• Create trusts to provide for your family especially if you die when your children are still young.
• Contain particular gifts or sums of money for specific people or charities.
• Minimise and restrict tax liabilities.
• Provide for your first family as well as your second if you remarry (remember that a spouse has rights that an unmarried partner does not if you die without making a Will).
• Make sure your business is passed on successfully.
• Leave you with peace of mind.
   

How long does a Will Last?

You should review your Will regularly. Your financial circumstances may have altered or a beneficiary may have died. Marriage invalidates any previously made Will.
 

What will it Cost?

We try to make this straightforward. Unless your affairs are complex or involve substantial tax planning we maintain a fixed fee service of £100 plus VAT for a single Will and £160 plus VAT for Wills for married couples.
