What is a Will?
A Will is a legal document that states who should inherit your assets and who will be responsible for carrying out your wishes after you pass away. Without a Will, your estate is distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not reflect your wishes.
The Risk Without a Will
- Intestacy Rules Apply → The law dictates who inherits, which may exclude person(s) you want to benefit from your estate.
- Social Services Involvement → Your children could end up in social services care before a legal guardian is appointed.
- Marriage Revokes a Will → If you marry (or remarry), your previous Will becomes invalid, and your spouse could inherit everything, leaving children from a previous marriage with nothing.
- Ex In-law/ Family Claims → Without a Will, estranged or distant family members could inherit by default, while your intended beneficiaries may be left out.
- Delays & Disputes → Without a Will, probate is longer, more expensive, and can lead to legal battles between family members.
How a Will Protects You
✅ Ensures your chosen beneficiaries inherit your wealth
