Wills & Estate Planning
Without an appropriate Will in place, your family and friends could be faced with unnecessary problems at the worst possible time. These can include financial hardship, significant delays in accessing your assets and no guarantee that your money will go to the intended recipients.
Do you want to keep your wealth in your family so your spouse, children and grandchildren who benefit?
What might happen to your assets in the absence of a Will?
- Your spouse or civil partner may not receive the whole of your estate.
- Your estate may have to pay more inheritance tax than necessary.
- Your home may be at risk from residential care fees.
- Unmarried partners may receive nothing.
You’ll want to be sure the assets and wealth you’ve accumulated and worked hard for, are passed to your loved ones at death, and avoid paying more tax than necessary.
