Either this is because it is not something they think they need, or they just have not got around to doing it yet. Most people at some time in their lives consider making a Will, but the thought often passes by without further action. The preconception that making a Will is a very daunting process is unfounded. The process ensures that what happens to your family and property when you die follows your wishes, and it is a matter of the utmost importance. If you care about who your Estate goes to - you need a Will.

- you may want your Estate to go to friends and Charities as well as parents and family

- do not assume that your partner will "automatically" receive your Estate. Other factors also come into play

- you cannot inherit from each other unless you have a Will in place - this may have serious financial implications

- who will look after your children? You need to ensure that you have appointed a Guardian

- is your Will out of date? It may now need to include grandchildren and perhaps specific legacies

Anderson Mathew specialise in Will Writing and Powers of Attorney covering a wide range of circumstances like these and more. We are able to assess your situation very quickly, and will make the whole planning process easy for you to achieve the right Will for you and your chosen beneficiaries.

Remember - if you die without a Will there are certain rules which govern how your Estate will be handed out. This may not reflect how you wish your money and possessions to be allocated.
