Many people don't make a Will because they believe that everything will just pass to their spouse or children or they believe their estate to be too insignificant to warrant a Will.

​

Through making a Will you have control over what happens, but if you die intestate (without making a valid Will) your estate will be divided by the "intestacy rules". The rules don't just govern who benefits from what but who is able to be your personal representative.

​

Did you know that if you are in a civil partnership or married and have children your partner won't automatically be passed your assets if you die without a Will?

​

If you die intestate without a spouse your children will benefit on the statutory trust, where there is no spouse or children then the order of entitlement is as follows:

• Parents

• Brothers and Sisters

• Half Brothers and Sisters

• Grandparents

• Uncles and Aunts

• The Crown

​

The only way to ensure your wishes are carried out is to make a Will.

​

There are numerous benefits of making a Will including appointing a guardian for your children.
