Why should I make a will?

If you haven’t got a will then your family and other loved ones could face escalating legal fees, financial problems and other pressures even while they are still mourning. A will can protect your family from a lot of worry by protecting your assets. If I don’t draw up a will what can happen? Not many people actually think about what could happen in the years following your passing. Property, cash, investments and other assets may be frozen or the state may claim some or a portion of them, and if a partner remarries then your children may not get the inheritance that you want them to have. It is a common belief that is when there no will in place the spouse or surviving partner is bequeathed the deceased’s estate as a matter of course. However, the way this happens does not suit everyone. You’d be surprised how often there are disputes and wrangles between relatives over an estate.

What happens if i don't have a will in east-grinstead.

The disagreements and arguments that take place can break people’s hearts when emotions are so charged. When there is no will in place, your assets will be distributed according to the law, which may not be in line with what you want. Even if you are married with children, your spouse won’t necessarily automatically be the beneficiary of all that you own. Rather, your state may be apportioned between your children and your spouse. If you are not married, your partner may not get any of your assets. Having a will in East-Grinstead is crucial to protect against anything you don’t want happening to your estate.

Will writing doesn’t have to be an expensive, stuffy experience you put off until it’s too late!

Estate Planning Services in East-Grinstead

Brighton Wills also offer a comprehensive suite of estate planning services alongside our will-writing services. From family trusts and probate forms to prepaid funerals, we offer a range of services that make estate planning easier, and that takes the strain of your family during the emotional time after passing.

Our professionals can sort out the legalities of Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) for you. If you have diminished mental capacity due to an illness, or because you have an accident, you may need a trusted person to have LPA and it will make it a lot easier if this is organised prior to the life changing event occurring.

The accessibility of your will Being able to safely store and easily locate your will could mean the difference to making a legally valid will that can be accessed and used right away, or dying “intestate” meaning that there was no will or that no will could be found. Your will needs to be stored in a safe place where people can’t randomly find it, but where your executors will have ready access to it when the time comes and they need it. Your executors can only guarantee that your money, property and assets go to who you want to have them if your will is a) found and b) undamaged. We will take a look at your requirements and give you advice as to whether you should use our will storage service, whether you should use the probate service, or whether you should give your Will to a third-party solicitor.

5 Common Reasons Why Wills are Contested

How to safeguard your digital life after death

Waughs Solicitors

WILLS AND PROBATE

Without a Will, you cannot easily control what happens to your estate when you die. Furthermore, if you do not make a Will, you will die "intestate". One of the consequences of that is that you do not choose who is to manage your affairs, as Executor, after you die. Your personal possessions or treasured items may not go to those whom you would like to benefit. Your estate is instead divided in accordance with Statute, which may well not accord with your wishes. Under the rules of intestacy, there is no provision for your favourite charity to benefit from your estate.

Furthermore, if you are involved in a divorce or separation, or have been recently divorced, unless your Will is drawn carefully, your family may be faced with claims from those whom you do not wish to benefit.

Making a Will is an opportunity to deal with these matters and can also set out any special wishes you have with regard to your funeral arrangements.

We can advise and assist you in dealing with these important matters and provide you with an opportunity for you to give careful thought to these issues.

A straightforward 'single Will' - £300.00 plus VAT, for 'double Wills', i.e. similar Wills for a married couple/partners - £480.00 plus VAT for both Wills.

Probate and the Administration of Estates

Bereavement can be a distressing time for all and we can provide a comprehensive and sympathetic service at this difficult time. Where the Deceased has left a Will we can advise the Executors on their duties and assist them in obtaining the Grant of Probate and carrying out those duties. If the Deceased left no Will, we can advise you on the consequences of intestacy and make the necessary application for a Grant of Representation.

In either case, we will complete the Inland Revenue Account for the estate, compile estate accounts and deal with the distribution of the estate to conclude the administration, including where necessary, the sale or transfer of assets.

Waughs offers a Grant only service as well as being able to deal with the administration of the whole estate.

The cost of the Grant Only service will depend on whether the estate in question is taxable or non-taxable. If the Estate is non-taxable the usual cost is a fixed fee of £980 (excluding VAT and disbursements). If the estate is taxable the cost is also a fixed fee of £,1800 (excluding VAT and disbursements). Depending on the complexity of the estate, this fixed fee quote can increase from £1,800 to £5,000 (excluding VAT and disbursements).

If you wish us to deal with the full administration of the estate then the cost will be based on the complexity of the case.

We are able to offer a meeting to discuss the matter of dealing with the administration of the estate. This meeting will be free of charge. If you wish us to proceed then we will be able to provide you with a quote before you leave the meeting. It is then up to you whether you wish us to act on your behalf.

If the matter becomes unduly complex, we reserve the right to adjust our initial estimate to reflect the circumstances of the case.

Disbursements

The following disbursements are not included in our quotes for probate work:

1. Probate Registry fees - £273 plus £1.50 per additional copy. 2. In cases where we need to check how the freehold property is held, either as joint tenants or tenants in common, there is a Land Registry fee of £3 for office copies. 3. During the administration of an estate, there may be instances where we will need to engage the services of a surveyor. These surveyor's fees can range from £400 to £1,800 (excluding VAT and disbursements). 4. If emergency repairs are required to a property that belongs to the deceased then any repairs carried out by a plumber or locksmith will need to be paid by the executor or in due course the estate. Likewise, if any household goods need to be removed from the property the cost of this will need to be settled separately. 5. There may be instances where the household goods need to be valued for inheritance Tax purposes. In these instances we will need to engage professional valuers. Again, these costs are not included within our fees. 6. There are occasions where there are no relatives or the only beneficiary is a Charity. In instances where there are no relatives any emergency costs that are incurred will need to be paid following the issue of the Grant. With regards to a Charity being the main beneficiary we will need to obtain authorisation from the Charity before any costs are incurred. This may result in further work having to be carried out and delays being encountered whilst seeking the necessary authority.

• Form IHT205: where the estate is not taxable and the necessary paperwork has been signed, it will be sent directly to the Probate Registry. Since the pandemic, we have encountered significant delays in respect of receiving the Grant. When we have been notified when the Grant is to be issued, we will contact you in order to update as to when we are likely to receive the Grant.
• Form IHT400: where the estate is taxable and all the documentation has been signed, we will send the information to the Inland Revenue to be checked. Again, we are experiencing significant delays with regards to the Inland Revenue informing us that they are happy for us to make the application to the Probate Registry for the Grant.

Following correspondence being received from the Inland Revenue, we will send the original Will, together with the supporting documentation, to the Probate Registry. Once we have received notification from the Probate Registry as to when the Grant will be issued, we will contact you. 

On average, taxable estates are dealt with within 6 to 12 months.  Non-taxable estates are dealt within to 6 months. Typically, obtaining the grant of probate for a taxable estate takes 4 to 7 months and 2 to 4 months for a non-taxable estate. Collecting in assets for both taxable and non-taxable estates can take between 2 to 3 months. Once this has been done, we can distribute the assets, which normally takes 2 to 4 weeks, from when the all the assets have been collected.

Our Services in East Grinstead

Will writing.

Our advice to our Clients is always to ensure that they have a valid Will in place, as this is the certain way of knowing that your express wishes will be carried out when you pass away. If there is no Will, then the risk is that your assets may not be distributed as you have wished, and a lengthy Estate Administration process will almost certainly be involved.

With our Will Writing service you can be confident that your wishes will be carried out, and part of our service is that we will follow up by contacting you regularly to ensure that the planning in place remains appropriate as your personal situation changes.

Estate Planning

Good Estate Planning is much more than just Inheritance Tax planning. We work with our Clients to make sure that not only is their inheritance plan in place, but that they also have appropriate Care Fees planning to protect their Estate from long term residential care fees assessment. We also assist Clients with protecting assets from sideways disinheritance between first and second death if the surviving spouse were to remarry. The majority of the time, we will also recommend Lasting Power of Attorney documents. Our Clients benefit from good Estate Planning which gives them and their family peace of mind.

Estate Administration

The process of Estate Administration, often a lengthy and complicated one, is another key service we offer. Specialised knowledge is often necessary to ensure that everything is done correctly, and we aim to eliminate the worries of Estate Administration at what is already an extremely stressful and emotional time.

If you live in or near East Grinstead and would like to find out more about our Will Writing, Estate Planning or Estate Administration services, then please do get in touch by giving our team a call on 01732 868190, or submitting an enquiry form , and we will arrange for Hugh Goodale, our Practice Director, to contact you to talk through your personal situation and how we can help you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do i need a will.

Your Estate Without a Will, the authorities will decide how and to whom your estate is distributed, which can result in problems for your loved ones that you leave behind. For example, if you are not married your partner could be left with nothing. Or if you are single, what you leave could end up going to the State.

Your Children Having a Will means you can appoint guardians for your children, which is even more important if both parents die – without a Will the local authorities can appoint guardians for you. Also if you are not married to the other parent when you die, this does not mean the other parent will automatically become the guardian (if your children were born before 2003).

Protecting Your Wealth Another vital reason for having a Will is to make sure that what you leave is not inherited by those you do not want to access your funds: for example, a future partner of your spouse or their future children.

Leave an Amount to Charity You can state in your Will an amount to leave to a Charity of your choice.

Trusts Some or all of what you leave can be put in a Trust for different reasons. For instance, so that your children receive it when they reach a certain age. You can also include conditions that Trust funds are only used for certain items: for example, a child’s education.

WHY USE CASEY & ASSOCIATES RATHER THAN A SOLICITOR?

We are experts in Will Writing and advising so will review your specific circumstances and recommend what to include in your Will, taking every foreseeable scenario into account. The biggest benefit to our clients is peace of mind. We also provide home visits at no charge saving you time and hassle.

Most solicitors are knowledgeable in several legal areas and are not necessarily specialist Will Writers.

WHY NOT JUST USE A DIY WILL KIT?

A DIY Will can save you money upfront but if you get anything incorrect, you could cause your family and friends you leave behind a whole lot of trouble and concerns when they are sorting out your finances after you have died.

Also, if you use a Will template, the responsibility for your Will being correct is completely down to you. If there are any mistakes which cause problems when your Will is read, there will not be any legal comeback at all.

It could even mean that your Will is invalid and the law will then decide who your money and property should go to.

WHAT ABOUT WILL WRITING COMPANIES OFFERING WILLS FOR A VERY LOW PRICE?

Unless your Will is to be very simple and standard (which is rare), we recommend that you avoid these companies. They usually provide a basic Will drafted from a template and are not experts, so they cannot advise you on your specific circumstances. An example of this is a lady who recently came to us that had one of these Wills written. She assumed she would need a simple, straightforward Will but we found several overlooked items that her Will needed to include. Luckily, she came to us instead of hoping the cheap Will she had would cover everything.

HOW LONG DOES THE PROCESS TAKE?

Once we have taken your instructions we wait for the statutory 14 days "cooling off" period, unless you have asked us to proceed straight away. We will normally send your “draft” Will(s) to you within seven to ten days. Once we receive your "draft authority" back we will normally ensure that your "Final Will" is with you after a further seven to ten days.

Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) can take longer because we are dependent on your attorneys (normally your family or children) signing documents and sending them back to us. We tend to find that most LPAs are completed within eight weeks. They then need to go to the Government to be registered. This takes on average, a further eight weeks.

CAN I REVISE MY WILL AND DO I PAY FOR THIS?

Some companies charge the full price to reissue Wills even if only slightly amended. Our policy is to charge £60 + VAT to reissue a Will and £190 + VAT to make a minor amendment such as a guardian or executor and then reissue a Will. Please note that it is NOT necessary to revise your Will(s) if one of your executors or beneficiaries changes address or name; it is all about identification.

Inheritance, Wills & Probate Barristers East Grinstead

Our East Grinstead experts are far more than just simple will-writers. We know how to write wills that properly distribute your assets to your chosen beneficiaries, making sure that there are no vague terms or hard-to-understand passages that get in the way of a clear and direct will statement.

As a licensed team of barristers and legal experts, we understand how inheritance laws relate to your personal possessions. We also have a full understanding of the legal processes surrounding British wills and how they should be approached if you want a will of your own.

Our online will writing service provides an easy way to get a new will written quickly, tailored to your exact needs and preferences, through multiple in-depth discussions. Will writing services like ours need to be prepared to sift through legal details and personal information to figure out how the right kind of will can be constructed.

A will dictates what happens after your death, concerning both immediate family and personal friends. A professionally-drafted will is not just something you get for style – it also provides you with the legal protection and support you need to have your wishes carried out correctly.

A large part of our duties as your will writing service involves us carefully piecing together a will that matches your wishes and needs, making sure that absolutely nothing can be misunderstood or misinterpreted. Any vagueness could allow the will to be challenged, compromising your original intentions and wishes as a result.

Inheritance

Wills are commonly used to set aside possessions or assets for inheritance, whether that is your own home or just a simple lump sum of money. We know how to write inheritance documents in a way that will not leave any doubt about how those assets are distributed and the terms behind them being handed over.

This includes details like overseas assets or money that is given in set amounts every year – things that can require highly specific legal language to get right. In a complex family situation, our professional assistance can make a big difference in how the inheritance is carried out.

Probate is the process of a person getting the legal right to deal with your personal property after your death. Your will can name a family member or friend that you trust to handle your assets – if you do not, then your closest living relative may have a chance to apply for probate.

A will allows you to specify your own executor (or executors) that will carry out your wishes instead. Since probate awards some control over your assets, you may have somebody you would prefer to name as your executor – former partners, close family members, a best friend, etc.

Probate might sound like a small detail, but it can be important if you have highly specific wishes for what will happen after your death. Our will writing services take these details into account, even if they do not initially appear to be all that important.

Reasons For Getting A Will Written

There are many reasons to get a will written, some more obvious than others. This includes:

You Have Specific Wishes

Wills allow you to specify the kind of East Grinstead funeral that you want and means that your family do not have to make that decision for you. This can be important since many people have specific personal or religious preferences that will impact how they want their body to be treated after their death.

You Have Dependent Children

Providing for children after your death is important, especially if they are your own children. If you die without a will, then the courts will choose who takes care of them and what assets they are given, so specifying your wishes can be important.

You Aren’t Married

If you are not married or in a partnership, then there is no guarantee that your partner will get anything after your death. This could even include the home that you have both been living in if you owned it.

You Own Overseas Property

Owning property overseas can complicate things since inheritance laws might be different between the two countries. This often requires you to specify your own inheritance requirements – this gives your family and friends some guidelines on what they should be doing.

You Worry About Inheritance Tax

Inheritance tax can become a problem if your estate is worth more than £325,000 upon death. Specifying that everything above that threshold goes to your spouse can result in them avoiding the tax.

Things Change

Updating your will can be important if circumstances change. It is possible to keep a single will throughout your entire life (although your existing will is cancelled if you get married), but you will want to keep updating your will to make sure that it is relevant to your current wishes and list of assets.

Where to get a will written?

Online will-writing services provide a useful place to get wills written quickly and efficiently, condensing the usual will-writing process into something far more convenient. Local solicitors and online specialists like us are a great way to get your wills created on short notice.

Online wills are no less valid than wills that were written in person in East Grinstead. In fact, many online wills are written with more care and specificity than the alternative, thanks to the wider pool of experience that online specialists like ours can draw from. Online platforms are akin to an online law firm – offering the same protection in a more convenient fashion.

Keep in mind that will writing is not a regulated market. You want to be sure that you are using will and probate services you can trust, so be sure to do your research on any local solicitor you consider. Even a licensed solicitor may not be experienced enough to write more than a simple will with minimal details.

How to get a will written?

The easiest way to get a will written is to simply approach a will-writing team and start telling them what you are looking for. Our will specialists know how to turn even the most basic of will concepts into an effective legal document, all without major delays or legal hurdles.

You can contact us directly if you need a will written by experts who know exactly what they are doing. We are more than happy to take up the responsibilities of writing your will, putting all of our expertise and past successes into producing the best document possible.

What is the Cost of a Will Writing Service?

On average, expect to pay anything from £100 to £150 for a single will, £250 for a mirror will, and £400 for trust wills in East Grinstead. This can vary depending on where you go, but paying more for a higher-quality will is almost always a worthwhile trade.

A will writing service involves a lot of serious legal work and careful planning to ensure that the document is legally correct and free from any misunderstandings or vague passages. Even a small mistake in terminology can completely destroy an otherwise perfect document – many of the extra costs here are due to the time it takes to produce a good will.

A cheap will might technically be valid, but it may not offer the same fine print details that a higher-quality option does. This can become a significant problem at a later date – for example, a budget will using the wrong terminology for your civil partner or not specifying a legal guardian for your children.

Best will writing service near me

Finding a good will writing service in East Grinstead can involve a lot of searching in your own time. However, the best wills come from experts, and online services mean that you do not even need to be in the same part of the country to get a will prepared for you.

Online wills are perfectly legal, meaning that they can be a great option for people who want something more than their local will-writers can offer.

Legal Will vs Online Will

Getting a will written by local legal professionals can often seem like the right choice, especially if you do not want to spend too much time searching for any alternatives. However, online documents offer far more flexibility and often come from specialists with more varied kinds of experience.

Wills can be tricky to write, and you might think that an online will writing service would be a riskier option. However, both are fully legal – the only difference is which one suits your needs best, and how well you choose the company providing it.

The Advantages Of Getting Will Written By A Solicitor

Writing your will yourself is always an option, but even then, it can be a smart idea to get a will writer to revise and reword it. This is because:

• A solicitor knows what to ask. They will cover details you did not even consider to leave no loopholes or vague details.
• A professional can draft your will correctly, making it far more legally admissible.
• A solicitor will word your will correctly and use the right kind of language, ensuring that nothing is misinterpreted and none of your wishes can be spun into something they are not.
• A good solicitor understands how to draft wills to accommodate complex family structures or tense financial stations.
• You get the option of extra steps, such as inheritance planning.

What happens if I die without making a will?

If you die without having written a will, then your assets and debts pass on to your partner. If you have no surviving partner, then any children you might have take on the estate, divided equally.

While this is sometimes fine for tight-knit families in East Grinstead that can distribute the wealth as intended anyway, this can become a problem in almost any other situation.

Divorced or separated partners cannot inherit, but cohabiting or informally-separated partners still can. Other relatives may be able to inherit under specific circumstances if there is nobody else who can, following a specific order of priority.

If you have no people who are eligible to inherit your assets, then they pass to the Crown. This effectively puts them in the hands of the government, meaning that they are no longer accessible to your family unless somebody makes a case to prove otherwise.

What exactly is a will?

In general, a will is a document that spells out exactly what you want to happen after your death. That means the treatment of children, spouses, civil partners, bank accounts, properties, assets, and anything else that you might want to specify. It also includes your funeral preferences and any inheritances you wish to happen.

What Can you Include in a Will?

You can include a lot in a will, mostly involving who in your family or private life gets what. This might mean things like giving bank accounts to a civil partner or trying to securely store inheritances until your children are old enough to use them wisely.

What types of gifts can I include in my will?

There are three types of gifts involved in a will:

• Specific, meaning a particular item you own or amount of money you want to give.
• Non-specific, meaning a general term like “my collection of antiques”. These can sometimes require some interpretation from the beneficiaries.
• Residuary, meaning everything left after the specific and non-specific gifts. This could be to a specific person, or a general order to divide everything else up fairly.

You can also give gifts to children, held until they are 18, or give gifts directly to charities as a donation.

Can an executor of a will also be a beneficiary?

An executor in East Grinstead can be a beneficiary, and the executor is often chosen from the main beneficiaries of the estate. Sometimes multiple are chosen to prevent bias and self-interest.

Do I need a will if I don’t own a house?

Wills cover all belongings, not just property. “Estate” does not mean your physical estate but your general assets as a whole.

What if I don’t have anything to leave?

Having a properly drafted will can be important even if you have no direct assets. You and your possessions may be worth more than you think, and you can also use a will to specify your funeral wishes.

Tips for writing a will if you have young children

Writing a will when children are involved can be hard – but we can help guide you through the process. Parental responsibility involves picking guardians for children who may be left parent-less, and naming them if you have any specific assets you want them to take on.

Always put parental responsibility first. You do not want to leave your children with nothing.

Can I include funeral wishes in my will?

A large part of the will involves funeral wishes in East Grinstead. These can be amended if you change your mind later on.

Can a will help protect my home against potential care home fees?

While you can’t avoid care home fees, certain methods of creating a will can allow you to not pay inheritance tax.

I’m not married to my partner – should I make a will?

Making a will is important for any partnership that is not a marriage or civil partnership. Without a will, only certain situations will result in your assets being given to a non-spouse partner.

How does getting married affect your will?

Being married – or entering a civil partnership – makes your duties as will writer that much more important. Spouses and civil partners will not necessarily need to be left anything specific, but mirror wills can still be important for ensuring that certain assets pass between you if one of you dies.

Making a will and mental capacity

If a person lacks the mental capacity to create a will, then any will they create will not be legally binding. Using an online will service may allow you to get around this problem.

Our will writing service makes the process easy

Making a will can be simple if you use an online will writing service like ours. We provide a huge range of different options for creating the perfect will for your needs, discussing each point in detail to make sure that we are creating something that matches your wishes exactly.

We can deal with all kinds of specific information, from your registered civil partnership to the inclusion of a disabled family member. If you are living in England and Wales, then our services can provide exactly what you need – and we can start writing as soon as you need us.

Solicitors Regulation Authority

We at Get A Will Written in East Grinstead are authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and are part of a recognised trade body. This connection with the Solicitors Regulation Authority shows that we are taking our online service very seriously.

Can any of my beneficiaries be a witness when I am making my will?

A beneficiary can’t witness a will, and neither can the spouse or partner of those beneficiaries. While many wills are created with around two witnesses there, our online service allows each client to create separate wills in private.

Where should I store my will?

Always store your will somewhere safe. This could be a locked safe, a filing cabinet, or a special hiding place. You need the physical document, so do not lose it, and get another created if you do.

Can my will be challenged?

Any will can be challenged, but that does not mean it will necessarily be successful. Most successful challenges involve situations where somebody is ignored unfairly in your will, or you have a request or gift that does not make sense and is not possible for your family and friends to complete.

What does undue influence mean in will writing?

Undue influence happens when somebody is pressured into creating a will, adding details they normally would not. This is not a practice approved by any legal body, and wills can be contested on the grounds that they appear out-of-character or biased towards somebody who may have forcibly had it changed for their own benefit.

Not all wills are regulated – Be Careful

Not all wills are safe and reliable. Even in England and Wales, you can end up setting wills that are not tax-efficient, that use incorrect information, or that are not even legally binding. Always choose a service or solicitor you feel confident with, like us.

FAQ’s

Do debts die with you.

Debts only die with you when there is no estate left and/or no relatives left to pay them in East Grinstead. While most debts will not incur any additional costs due to your death, they will not go away easily.

What about inheritance tax?

Inheritance tax only applies if your estate is worth more than 325,000. You can avoid this problem by splitting your money up more to get below that threshold.

Can I leave a will If I become incapacitated?

You can leave a will at any time. However, standard wills only apply if you die. The exception is living wills, which include details like whether or not you want to be resuscitated. These might also specify things that hold lasting power over your family even before you die, like property being given to family members in the event of you being severely wounded.

Can I Write My Own Will?

While you can write your own will, it is important to turn to a specialist as soon as you can. Wills require a lot of specialist legal language that the average person has not encountered before.

Even if you have every step of the writing process witnessed correctly by another person with some legal experience, the will you produce and the will we produce may feel like two separate wills.

What can I do if I think a relative’s estate has gone to the Crown?

You can attempt to claim an unclaimed estate if you think you have a reasonable justification for it. This is easiest to do when you are a relative. However, there is no guarantee that you will succeed.

Living together but not married or in a civil partnership in East Grinstead? A ‘cohabitation agreement’ gives you protection.

Cohabitation offers you some legal protection in England and Wales. Even if you are not married, you can still take your partner’s assets in many cases.

Is it possible to change somebody’s will after they have died?

You can only change a will if everybody involved in the decision agrees. This includes people who may be worse off from the changes. Challenging a will also counts.

Property Protection

Why Should You Make A Will East Grinstead

If you live in UK and you pass away without having a valid legal bestowal, the government  will  have the authority over the distribution of your assets.

Also, other people will be free to make decisions, to their benefit, on who to take care and educate your  children  under the age of 18 years.

Your essential must do's - When Making A Will!

Approximately 59% of British adults did not have a Will

Make Your Families Life Easier

Creating a Will is crucial as it helps prevent situations like inheritance disputes. It’s a common scenario where people end up in court, battling their own family members for certain assets or investments.

Crafting a professional Will holds great importance, so exercise careful consideration when selecting the individual to oversee your Estate once you have passed away. Opting for an exceptional executor ensures that your wishes and bequests will be carried out precisely as intended and desired.

Who is Your Beneficiary

To prevent such incidences; therefore, you should write a legacy and bestow your possessions to your children according to your wish and desire.

Before writing a Will, you should consider the value of the properties you own, including savings, cars, and furniture.

Also, acknowledge your homes, business entities or even property abroad, and the legacy should outline the individual to receive them after you are gone.

What to Consider, When Writing a Will

Trust and trustees.

Many individuals overlook the importance of appointing trustees when drafting a will. Trustees are trusted individuals responsible for managing your property on behalf of your family, including minors under the age of 18.

Beneficiaries

The reason behind writing a Will is to ensure that your loved ones inherit your possessions you worked hard to obtain. You should determine carefully on how your property will be divided and who should inherit what. The beneficiaries may include your children; wife or wives; close relatives, such as aunts, uncles, and grandchildren; friends or co-workers or any other person you may wish.

Usually, if you have young kids, you should choose the person who is to take care of them until they attain the adult age, for most states is 18 years. Therefore, it is reassuring to understand that you have the right to appoint an official guardian of your choice for your children in the will.

Most people know the importance of making a Will, but for one reason or another never get around to it or think that because they do not have considerable savings or property, they do not need to.

For many people, the prospect of writing a Will can be a daunting process. James McKenzie recognise this is often a reason people put off writing a Will, so to combat this have simplified our offering into distinct services.

Over 300,000 people die without a valid Will each year, causing additional financial and emotional burdens on the loved ones left behind. Companies offering their staff Will writing as a flexible or voluntary benefit show they care not only about the staff member, but their whole family.

James McKenzie (Wills) Ltd is a specialist Will writing company, focusing primarily on providing Wills and related products to employees of large multinational companies. We have been providing Will writing services since 2004 and have been in the employee benefit market since 2007.

• Our Services /

We work on a fixed fee basis, so irrespective of the time taken to complete the process, or the number of clauses required in the Wills, there are no hidden extras. Furthermore, we do not appoint ourselves as Executors which can you save thousands of pounds in unnecessary legal fees after death.

We offer two levels of service under our Will writing proposition – Standard and Advanced.

Standard Service

The Standard Service includes the appointment of Executors, Trustees and Guardians, the distribution of assets through legacy gifts and residual beneficiaries, funeral wishes and generic inheritance tax advice. This service is recommended for those who have a modest net worth and would like to leave all their assets outright to their surviving spouse/partner, children (in trust up to age 25) or other family and friends or charities.

Advanced Service

The Advanced Service includes all the above with more complex trust structures and tax advice designed to give greater protection over your assets for your beneficiaries. This service is suitable in a variety of circumstances, especially for those who wish to protect their assets for their children against a future re-marriage, for those with a larger estate, or for those with children from more than one relationship.

Single or Mirror / Joint

Both levels of the Will Writing service (Standard and Advanced) are available on a Single or Mirror / Joint basis. Single is for the individual, and the Mirror/ Joint service covers two people (partners or spouses). Each person will have their own Will at the end of the process and the Wills do not need to be identical.
