Posted by Law Article on July 13th, 2009 at 07:09pm

Have you made your will? Perhaps not. Most people delay in making of a will – it is just not something people like to think about.  However, whatever your age, a Will is an important step in ensuring that those closest to you are properly provided for in the event that something unexpected happens.  A Will does not just deal with issues relating to money and possessions, but can also provide for important issues such as who should be appointed as guardians to young children and provisions with regards how you would like to be remembered.  Also, as property values rise, many more people are having to pay Inheritance Tax than was previously the case.  Proper Will planning can reduce the amount of money that goes to the tax man and increase the amount that your loved ones receive.It really is worthwhile taking time out from your hectic schedule to think about making a Will.  Duncan Lewis & Co can help by providing access to a specialist Wills & Probate lawyer who can advise you as to the options that are available to you with regards estate planning.Ideally, every adult should make a Will and review it regularly.  When your status or circumstances change, such as when you get married, have children or following a divorce, it is important to revise your Wills.  Before you make your will, you need to decide who should benefit. This could include charitable donations that you may wish to make in addition to providing for loved ones.  It is important to understand that marriage nullifies any Will you made before your wedding day, which can have serious implications for those you might have intended to benefit.  This could include a close family member for whom you wish to provide, but who would not automatically be entitled to benefit from your estate in the absence of a Will.  The absence of a properly thought out Will can often result in disputes arising following your death.  Although the Duncan Lewis & Co team can advised in relation to all aspects of probate litigation, we would rather that everyone had a properly drawn up Will in order to ensure that all parties receive what is rightfully theirs. At Duncan Lewis & Co, we specialise in providing expert legal advice without charging you a fortune for our services. Rather, we go out of our way to ensure that your fortune ends up safely in the hands of your closest friends and family.  The process is usually straight forward with the help of our specially drafted questionnaires which help you to clarify your thoughts and help us prepare a professionally drafted Will in the shortest possible time.   So, don’t over look your wills and probate issues.
