Wills and Probate

Most people die “intestate,” meaning never having made a Will. This means that in effect, they are leaving the law to sort out their affairs when they die - a task to which it is poorly suited.

If an individual dies intestate, his or her estate estate is distributed according to set rules, without any regard for what he might have intended.  At worst, this could mean loved ones receiving nothing and long-forgotten relations receiving all.

A Will allows you to decide exactly what happens when you die. In many instances, a Will can dramatically reduce your liability to Inheritance Tax. It can also prevent bitter family disputes and afford you peace of mind. Wills are not just for the old and infirm. Anyone who is married, in a civil partnership, living with a partner or has children should make a Will.

Wills do not take long to prepare and they are inexpensive. The benefits, both financial and emotional can be beyond measure.
