Will writing
now what happens?
Who inherits and when
What happens to your estate when you die is something you would record in a will, will writing is highly recommended for people with children or assets, you can even exclude certain people from inheriting.
Cash can be left in set amounts or percentages and you can say who gets the pleasure of raising your dependents.
If you die without a valid will, then your estate will follow the ‘Rules Of Intestacy’, these are the standard government guidelines, although they aren’t always in the deceased’s best interests. For more information click here.
If your estate is large enough then probate may be necessary, this determines who has the legal right to deal with your estate when you die.
