Wills

Making a will is one of the most important things we can do - after all it determines how our most personal possessions and hard-earned savings will be shared among close family and friends.

It is often a simple and inexpensive process. But failure to make a will can pose major difficulties for those left behind, for instance, where there may be Inheritance Tax implications.

Your estate - money, other assets and possessions - could be distributed according to the law rather than your wishes. It is particularly important to leave instructions if you own property.

What you need to think about

It is advisable to consult a solicitor before deciding what to put in your will. A will can cover a range of issues, including:

  • Who should inherit your property, money, other assets and possessions;
  • How your children should be cared for;
  • Who should be responsible for looking after your estate (the executors);
  • Special arrangements for your funeral; and
  • Any charitable donations you would like to make.

How we can help

Wills are often straightforward, but some involve complicated arrangements and financial affairs, such as blended families - all the more reason to ensure they are drawn up by a qualified solicitor.

By offering legal and financial services together, our solicitors can help you see the opportunities that others cannot. Our experts will work together to manage and reduce your exposure to Inheritance Tax, thus leaving more of your estate for your beneficiaries.

Living Wills

A living will (also known as an advance directive) provides that where you are unable to communicate or take part in deciding on your medical treatment as a result of serious physical illness or mental incapacity, you wish that your life should not be sustained by artificial means and medical treatment should be limited to keeping you comfortable and free from pain.

Such a directive can form part of your planning with Aberdein Considine Legal.
