Wills, Probate & Estate Administration
Everyone should make appropriate provision in relation to their estates by making a Will. This is relatively inexpensive and will give you the peace of mind to know that your assets will pass in accordance with your wishes. Ideally we prefer to meet you to ensure that we have a full understanding of you and your family’s requirements, but if it is difficult for you to come into the office for a discussion, your Will can be dealt with electronically or by post, provided your instructions are straightforward. Either way, we will let you have an estimate of our charges; prepare a Will for your approval and give you full written advice on its terms and advise you on steps that can be taken to save Inheritance Tax.
If you do not make a Will, your estate will be distributed in accordance with the Intestacy Rules. This may prejudice your family and unmarried partners and friends will receive nothing. In the worst case, all your assets could go to the Treasury.
If you would like to complete a Will Questionnaire, simply click on the request button below. Please complete and return the form to us by email, post or fax. We will then telephone you to clarify your questionnaire instructions where necessary and let you know what our charges will be before you are committed.
In addition to the preparation of Wills, we are able to deal with the administration of estates including those where assets are held overseas. We will make sure that you are kept informed every step of the way during the administration process at a time which can be very confusing and distressing.
