Wills and assets

Do you know what happens to your assets when you die?

 

Recent research indicates over half of the adult population in the UK are currently without a will.  Of those that have, more than a third of the wills’ fail to fulfill the intention of the testator (one who makes the will).  We are legally unable to offer wills or probate service through our firm.  However we can offer advice on your will, how to save inheritance tax and assist those responsible for dealing with the affairs of the deceased to obtain probate and prepare estate accounts.
