Plain speaking divorce, family and property law solicitors.
The one certainty in life is that things will change. We can never be sure what the future holds but we can take steps to anticipate and manage life’s changes. Only by making a Will can you guarantee that your wishes will be carried out upon your death. Although the law may ensure that spouses and children are provided for, without a Will this is not definite and may take much longer to sort out, causing your family stress and anxiety at an already difficult time. The law does not make any provision for unmarried partners or step-children and it is therefore perhaps even more crucial that cohabiting couples make Wills. If you made a Will some time ago you should consider reviewing it, to ensure that it is up to date.
If you want to:
• Decide who will inherit your assets.
• Make proper provision for your family.
• Nominate guardians of your children.
• Appoint Executors to handle your affairs.
• Minimise Inheritance Tax Liability.
• Make a charitable donation.
• State your wishes for your funeral arrangements
Then you need a Will!
We will ensure that your Will is prepared properly, in order to secure your family’s future and give you peace of mind.
Probate is the legal process of settling the estate and distributing the property of a deceased person. The Executor of the Will or other administrator is responsible for:
• Collecting in the assets
• Settling any debts
• Distributing the estate in accordance with the terms of the Will
The prospect of carrying out these tasks may seem overwhelming to those charged with the duty, particularly at such a sad time. We can arrange the administration of the estate and ease the burden of responsibility, ensuring the entire process is completed smoothly and efficiently.
