Making a Will
To ensure that your beneficiaries inheritance is secure it is important that you make a Will. If you do not everything that you leave will be allocated according to the Intestacy Rules and, as a result of this, your possessions may not be distributed as you would have wished.
By making a Will you may avoid all kinds of complications and expense for those who inherit, meaning that your estate can be distributed with minimum delay.
What are Intestacy Rules? – Intestacy Rules apply should you die without having made a will. Under these rules assets are often passed to unintended beneficiaries; unwanted trusts with limited powers of investment can be created, and undesirable Inheritance Tax consequences may occur. Intestacy commonly leads to a greater delay in obtaining a Grant of Probate than if a will had been made.
