When a person dies without leaving a valid will, their property and assets (the estate) must be shared out according to the rules of intestacy. A person who dies without leaving a will is called an intestate person.

Making a Will is one of the most important things that you will ever do. Get it ticked off your to-do list with the help of our specialist solicitors.

We are proud to be members of the Law Society’s Wills & Inheritance Quality Scheme (WIQS), a prestigious mark of high quality which requires us to provide enhanced standards of expertise, client care and service. Some individual members of our team also have additional specialist qualifications as members of respected professional bodies such as: the Society of Trust & Estate Practitioners (STEP), Solicitors for the Elderly (SFE) and the Law Society’s Private Client Section.

Our specialist team of Solicitors can draft bespoke wills individually tailored to meet your needs whether you are single, married or cohabiting. Making a Will ensures your children, step-children and grandchildren are catered for. You can also provide for vulnerable beneficiaries or those who lack the capacity to manage their financial affairs.

We can provide appropriate advice in the event any beneficiaries separate from a spouse/civil partner or are declared bankrupt or insolvent. Additionally, we can provide appropriate advice in the case of second marriages or should you have children from previous relationships. A Will is a great way to appoint a guardian for your minor children, make provision for the care of pets and leave specific legacies (gifts of money) to friends, other family members or charities.
