Preparing Your Will

Making a Will ensures that your wishes regarding the distribution of your assets and care for any minor children are respected after your death. This important legal document provides clarity and peace of mind for you and for your loved ones, ensuring your wishes are carried out.

How We Can Help

Our expert team assists you through every step of preparing your Will:

  • Understanding Testamentary Freedom: In the UK, you can leave your estate to anyone you choose, provided you consider any dependents.
  • Avoiding Intestacy Rules: Without a Will, your estate will be divided according to set intestacy rules, which may not align with your wishes.
  • Appointing Executors and Trustees: Select trusted individuals to administer your estate, ensuring your wishes are carried out smoothly.
  • Control Over Distribution: Decide who gets what from your estate, ensuring your assets are distributed as you intend.
  • Appointing Guardians for Minor Children: A Will allows you to appoint guardians, giving you peace of mind that your children will be cared for by trusted individuals.
  • Tax Planning: Our solicitors can advise on inheritance tax implications and help draft a Will that maximises any available tax advantages.

Why Make a Will?

  • Proper Estate Division: By making a Will, you ensure that your estate is divided in accordance with your wishes, not the intestacy rules.
  • Appointing Key Individuals: You choose your Executors, Trustees, and Guardians, giving you control over who manages your estate and cares for your children.
  • Minimise Tax Liabilities: Proper tax planning within your Will can reduce inheritance tax and ensure your beneficiaries get the most from your estate.
