Wills
Writing a Will might seem like an unimportant task, but if you die without leaving one it can mean a lot of expense and hard work for the ones you leave behind.
There are many practical reasons for writing a Will. Although married couples and civil partners will automatically inherit, the same right is not extended to cohabiting couples, unless it is stated in a Will that they should do so.
Of course it is also a chance for you to decide who should get what, ensuring close friends and important charities do not miss out. In purely financial terms, with some careful planning it might also be possible to mitigate your Inheritance Tax bill.
Finally, if you have children a Will is an opportunity to state who you would like to look after them in the event of your death.
Writing a Will also gives you the peace of mind knowing your loved ones have been provided for to the best of your ability. If you wish to write yours, either complete the online form to the right and our Ipswich probate solicitors will get back to you, or speak to us directly on the number below.
