Making a Will also provides you with the opportunity to choose who will look after your affairs when you die and ensure that you have made adequate arrangements for your children through the appointment of guardians.
Without a Will, your affairs will be dealt with according to the Rules of Intestacy, which are complex and often unsatisfactory. Even in what you might think are straightforward circumstances, Intestacy provisions can have a dramatic impact on those you leave behind.
The probate solicitor team at Beecham Peacock can help you make a will that helps with all the issues mentioned above, plus others such as setting up trusts, reducing inheritance tax and making charitable donations. Contact our Newcastle office on 0191 232 3048 to make a start.
