Wills

Writing a will protects your family after you are gone

The importance of having a Will can’t be stressed enough whether you’re young and just bought a property with plans to start a family or you’re older and have amassed a significant amount of wealth – leaving the risk of your loved ones not inheriting from your hard work just isn’t an option.
 

If you die without a Will, then the Government decides who will inherit your estate in accordance with the Laws of Intestacy in which case your spouse may end up sharing your estate with your children or parents, or if you are an unmarried couple, then your partner may not get anything; and even worse an ex-spouse could be the eventual beneficiary
 

Making a Will is about ensuring that what you have, goes where you want to, and looking after the people you care most about.
 

Whilst a Will gives piece of mind, it has to be the right type of Will - one that is professionally drafted to take into account your wishes, and your personal and financial circumstances, and will make things as easy as possible for your executors.

​

The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate Will Writing & Estate Planning. Your property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

What Does A Will Do?

With the right Will you can
 

  • Specify whom you wish to inherit your estate, in what order and in what proportions.

  • Make specific gifts to family, friends or even to your favourite charities.

  • Appoint suitable guardians for young children.

  • Arrange maintenance trusts for children, to protect their inheritance until a specified age.

  • Ensure the inheritance of your children or other beneficiaries should the survivor re-marry.

  • Help reduce Inheritance Tax, and can even help to reduce the effects of nursing care fees.
