Do I need a Will?

Married or not, you need a Will to ensure that your wishes are followed in the event of your death. If you die without leaving a valid Will in place, the Intestacy Rules apply, which may mean means that the people you wish to benefit from your assets do not do so because they are not entitled to them under the law. The Intestacy Rules may also result in complex trusts being set up for your family which can be costly to administer and contrary to your wishes.

Our dedicated Wills and Trusts solicitors can help you draft a Will that covers all the necessary assets you wish to impart and to whom.
