Wills and Tax Planning
Making a will suitable for your own personal circumstances is one of the best things you can do to ensure your peace of mind and protect your loved ones after your death. It can seem like a daunting and somewhat morbid task but when approached in a sensitive and realistic way it can provide you with a lot of reassurance.
No matter what your circumstances our knowledgeable team will work with you to make sure your will is tailored specifically for your needs. Making a will in the only way to ensure that your estate is dealt with by someone you trust and, more importantly, that any assets are passed on exactly as you intend.
If you pass away without a will (intestate) there is no guarantee of this, particularly if you are unmarried or have children from a previous relationship. The death of a loved one is difficultly enough for families without finding themselves locked in legal battles over inheritance claims. As a worst case scenario, if you have no will and no close relatives, your estate could pass to the government – something which could be avoided if you bequeath your assets to friends or charities of your choosing.
