What is a will?
Your will is a legal document that describes what should happen to your estate when you pass away. Your estate includes your money, property and possessions.
When should I write my will?
If you have dependants such as a spouse or children, or if you have any particular plans for your estate, then it’s worth writing a will as soon as possible and keeping it up to date. It’s especially important to update your will when there is a major change in your circumstances – for example, getting married, having children or getting a divorce.
You should ensure your will is detailed and clear, and includes the following information if necessary
Give the exact details and value of your estate, including money, properties and possessions that you own
You should outline who you want to inherit from your estate clearly and precisely, using full names rather than their relationship to you – for example, give your spouse’s full name rather than saying ‘my spouse’
You should also clearly state who the executor of your will is. The executor is the person who is responsible for dividing your estate according to your will upon your death
If you have any children under 18 you should state who you want to be their legal guardian
If you have any specific gifts you want to leave to particular beneficiaries you should say so – these are called ‘legacies’
Leave a message to those special ones who have made a difference through out your life and express any wishes you may have
"It's never been more important to ensure you have a will. If you die before making a will, the government will follow the rules of intestacy, a set of guidelines that decides who gets your assets. But these rules are over 100 years old, so do not consider modern family dynamics
