You probably think writing a Will is a pretty straightforward process.
Surely there must be a standard set of text, and you just select a few paragraphs to suit your needs?
It could be that simple, but, in our experience, it rarely is.
You may well have a family set up that might be deemed as non-traditional – you may have married more than once, you may have children with more than one partner, you may have other dependents. If there are any disagreements in the family, that’s another factor to consider.
If you don’t have your wishes detailed in your Will, you can’t be confident that your estate will be shared with the right people.
If you have a young family, who will look after your children if both parents die?
It’s not a pleasant thought, but it is one that needs to be considered. You should consider who you wish to appoint as legal guardians in that instance, seek their approval, and ensure this too is in your Will.
Equally, if you have strong wishes about your funeral, your Will is the ideal place to document this.
Clearly, there is a lot to think about. We don’t need to blind you with legalese telling you everything you need to think about. After all, that’s what we are here for.
