Wills
Our Walsall probate solicitors always advise clients to write a Will. Here are some of the reasons we believe it is important to do so;
If you do not, the Government decides who gets what, meaning family, friends, charities etc may get nothing
If you are not married or registered in a civil partnership, cohabiting partners do not have the same inheritance rights
If you have children or dependents, if no Will is left it is not clear who should look after them in the event of your death
It is especially important to make a Will if;
There are several people who depend upon you financially
You wish to include a Trust in your Will
You own or partially own a business
You own property abroad
Once you have written your Will it is important to keep it updated. For instance if you get married or divorced, you must update your Will. Failure to do so may render all or some of that Will invalid.
Our Walsall Wills and probate solicitors will be able to talk you through the process beginning to end.
