If you have recently suffered a bereavement in your family, we understand how difficult this can be. Dealing with a loved one’s estate can be particularly difficult to manage alongside your grief.
It is important to make a Will, no matter how old you are. By making a Will you are ensuring that the people you want to benefit from your estate will inherit it.
Many people think about making a Will so that their loved ones are provided for following their death, but quite often they don’t consider how they can ensure their affairs are managed ‘during’ their lives.
The death of a loved one is always a difficult time. The situation can unfortunately be made even more stressful if it is discovered that the deceased’s last Will is not as family and friends may have expected. This is particularly so, if the Will does not reflect the deceased’s wishes as they had previously expressed them.
If there’s any change in your circumstances, it’s always important to review your Will. This is especially the case for major life changes, such as marriage or divorce.
No matter how old you are, it is important to make a Will – and how we go about that process is equally so. Over the past few years, an increasing number of people have been opting for DIY Wills.
When a family breaks down, it’s inevitably a difficult time and understandably, very important that any children involved are still supported both emotionally and financially. Time spent with each parent should enable children to thrive.
Coming to the decision that your marriage has come to an end is not an easy time and there will inevitably be stressful periods, navigating an unfamiliar process, with various factors to consider.
