Will Services
A Will is a legal document enabling you to dictate the distribution of your assets (money, property, possessions) after your death. It empowers you to designate an executor to manage your estate according to your wishes, potentially saving your loved ones from unnecessary tax burdens. Without a Will, the laws of intestacy mean that your estate will be distributed in a strict and specific order and this won’t necessarily be what you want to achieve or reflect your wishes of whom you want to inherit at all.

What happens if I die without a will (intestate)?
If you die without a valid will, your estate will be distributed according to the rules of intestacy set out in the law. This means that your assets will be divided among your surviving relatives in a predetermined order, which may not align with your wishes. For example, if you are married or in a civil partnership and have children, your spouse or partner may not inherit the entirety of your estate. It's essential to create a will to ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes and to avoid potential disputes among your loved ones.
