Wills & Probate
HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF YOUR FUTURE? HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF
MAKING A WILL?
We are able to produce a Will for you over the phone with the minimum of
fuss and time, for a very competitive cost, and with the peace of mind of
dealing with a Professional and experience service.
Below are some things that we think you should consider
when considering making a Will.
1 - Should you die without a will, there are certain
rules which dictate how your estate (that is money, property and personal
items) should be allocated. This may not be the way that when alive you
would have wished them to be distributed. A Will makes sure any gifts go
to the people, or organizations you want.
2 - You will be able to leave money to your favourite
Charity, tax free.
3 - Unmarried co-habiting couples (whether they
are the same sex or not) will not usually inherit from each other unless
there is a will, so the death of one partner may create serious financial
problems for the remaining partner.
4 - Married couples with children under 18 should
also consider what arrangements they want to make if either one or both
of them die. You can appoint one or more individuals to act as guardian(s)
for your children.
5 - Unmarried couples with children under 18 should
also consider what arrangements they want to make if either one or both
of them die. It is even more important for unmarried couples to make provision
for their children.
6 - It may be possible to reduce the amount of
tax payable on any inheritance.
7 - If you have a Will make sure it is up to date,
as you may need to alter it.
