There are many benefits of making a Will. They give you the opportunity of ordering your affairs after your death. Though the idea of contemplating one’s death is something many people feel reluctant about, however it is important to be prepared. By leaving a Will, you are in control of how your property and affairs will be dealt with and will ensure the Intestacy Rules do not dictate what happens to your possessions. Not only that, but it will make the lives of those you leave behind much easier.
Leaving a Will provides financial security for your loved ones. It is the most successful way of ensuring the loved ones you leave behind are adequately provided for. Moreover, if you own items of sentimental value, family heirlooms, or valuable jewellery etc., you may want to ensure they go to particular family member or friend. Giving specific instructions in the Will is the best way to do this. In addition, careful Will drafting with the help of a specialised solicitor like Bretherton Law can have a significant effect to minimise the amount of inheritance tax that will be likely to be paid.
It is also very important if you have young children, and want to provide appropriate care for them after your death, to appoint a willing guardian for them. You can also choose your executors. This means you get to choose who will be responsible for administrating your affairs after your death. Furthermore, if you have any specific wishes for your funeral, for your burial or cremation, you can put these wishes in your Will.
