A Will outlines how you want your assets to be distributed when you die and designates who should handle the administration. By creating a valid will or updating an existing one with professional legal advice, you can ensure that your spouse, family, friends, and favorite charities will benefit according to your intentions.

Making a Will is the only way to ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes when you die. Without a valid Will, your estate will be distributed according to the rules of intestacy, which may benefit the taxman and the Crown instead of your spouse, children, friends, and favorite charities. Currently, a spouse and UK-registered charities are exempt from inheritance tax without limit.

You can use your will to specify the details of legacies you want to leave to individuals or charities, helping to avoid unnecessary inheritance tax. It is also the place to express your wishes regarding your burial, stone setting, and the reciting of kaddish.
