Wills and LPAs
Have you made a Will? Have you made a Will but your circumstances have changed?
Why make a Will? There are many reasons including:
- There are financial reasons for making a Will. If you die without making a Will your assets will be distributed according to law rather than your wishes. This may mean a partner receiving less money or your money going to family members who may not need it.
- You can nominate Guardians to look after your children if you die before they become 18.
- You can give away gifts to people or causes you care about.
- If you aren’t married your partner will not automatically inherit everything you would wish them to have, unless you make a Will.

Although it is possible to write your own Will without the help of a Solicitor, this is generally not advisable as there are various legal formalities that you will need to follow to ensure your Will is valid. Without the help of a Solicitor who is an expert in this field, there is a real risk you could make a mistake which could cause problems for your family and friends after your death at what will already be a stressful time for them. Experience tells us that in only a small minority of cases Wills are as straightforward as clients think. Common issues include Inheritance Tax, family members who are disabled or who have financial difficulties, or couples who have children from a previous marriage.
It is not as expensive as you might think
