Making a Will

Everyone should make a Will.

If you care about what happens to your property after you pass away, you should make a will.

Without one, your partner, friends or relatives may get nothing. It is particularly important to make a will if you and your partner are not married nor have a civil partnership. This is because the law does not automatically recognise partners as having the same rights as husbands and wives or civil partners.

Making a will not only enables you to manage your estate and assets but, in the process, look after loved ones when you’ve gone, and, potentially protect certain assets from being used for any long-term care needs you may have in the future.

If you die without having made a Will your estate might pass to your parents or your siblings under intestacy rules, but you may prefer to leave your estate to your nieces, nephews, friends or charities that a close to your heart.

Equally, you should make a Will to set out your preferred funeral arrangements.

We can give advice and guidance as to the most appropriate form of Will for you to cover your individual requirements and to try to minimise, where possible, the impact of Inheritance Tax.
