Why Make a Will ( inc free guide)
(Includes a free downloadable guide) Over 50% of UK adults haven’t made a will. If you die without one, the consequences can be complicated, distressing—and in some cases—catastrophic.
Dying without a valid will means the laws of intestacy decide how your estate is distributed. This often doesn’t reflect your wishes and can create unnecessary hardship for those you leave behind. A professionally drafted will puts you in control. It ensures your intentions are honoured and your loved ones are protected.
Your will should be reviewed and updated as your life changes—whether you marry, have children, divorce, or experience financial changes.
What a Valid Will Allows You to Do:
- Ensure someone you trust manages your affairs
- Leave everything to your spouse or partner
- Provide for children, stepchildren, or other dependants
- Make specific gifts, such as money or sentimental items
- Leave a legacy to charity
- Protect your assets for future generations
- Appoint guardians for your children • Provide for an unmarried partner
- Make special arrangements for vulnerable or disabled loved ones
