Why Make a Will?
It's vitally important to make a will whether or not you consider yourself to have many valuable possessions or money.
- You can appoint the person you wish to deal with your affairs on your death
- You can leave specifically to whom you wish
- If you die without making a will there are statutory rules which allocate your property and possessions in a way you may not wish
- If one or both of a husband and wife or Civil Partners die with children surviving then you can appoint Guardians for your children and make financial arrangements for them
- If you are not married or registered as Civil Partners then you can not inherit from your partner without a will which may cause serious problems
- If you are married, or registered civil partners you may be able to reduce the amount of Inheritance Tax payable by as much as 130,000.00 on your joint estates
- A will does not have to be registered but merely kept safe for your executors, whose power to deal with your property and affairs is immediate on your death, whereas an administrator of your estate has no power until Letters of Administration are granted
- If your marital circumstances have changed in recent years, it's important that you make a will to make sure that your money and possessions are distributed according to your wishes. A new will makes any previous will you had before invalid.
