Whilst nothing can prepare us for the death of a loved one, taking the time to write a will makes things easier for your loved ones in the event of your death. It also ensures that you decide who gets what and when. Without a will the distribution of your estate will be decided by law.

A will is not just for the wealthy or the elderly; it’s important for each of us. If you want to appoint a specific friend or relative as guardian to your children, should you and/or your partner die, you need a will.

Take control of your family’s future now – make a will. It doesn’t need to be set in stone; it only becomes effective on your death so you can make changes as your circumstances change. If you already have a will, is it time to review it? Does it still reflect your wishes today?

In a simple family structure, having a will helps smooth the path of the probate process. Of course every family is different; in a more complex family structure where there are new partners or estranged children the lack of a will could cause stress and anxiety for your family.

It is said that where there’s a will there’s a way and when we pass away this is so true. A well planned will provides peace of mind for the one who leaves and clarity and certainty for those left behind.
