Why do I need a will?
If you're over 18, a will is undoubtedly one of the most important things you can put in place to help ensure both the financial and emotional security of your family if you were to pass away.
Your will isn’t just about sharing out your assets, although that is an important part. It’s about who you appoint to look after your estate. If you have children, it’s about who should care for them if you’re no longer there. You can also make your wishes clear about how their inheritance should be managed, if they’re not old enough to look after it themselves.
Your will can also let you set out what happens to you when you die. For example, if you want to be cremated rather than buried, you can include that in your will so that your wishes are clear. Of course, if your financial affairs or family situation are particularly complicated, you may also need to talk to a legal or tax professional to ensure your Will is sound.
