WHY SHOULD I MAKE A WILL?

If you are single
You might want your estate divided amongst friends, relatives and charities of your choosing and in the proportions you want.

If you are married
Don’t assume “my other half will get everything”. Brothers, sisters or parents may have a claim. Often your children have a right to be part of your estate too.

If you are retired
Maybe you made a Will a long time ago. It probably needs updating to include additional grandchildren or deletion of persons you no longer feel you want to benefit from.

If you are living with your partner but are not married
If you are living with a partner but are not officially married, you may be treated as a single person and a surviving partner may get nothing at all.

If you are a parent
You should consider who you would like to look after your children in the event of your death by appointing a guardian in your Will. This is particularly important in the case of single-parent families or unmarried parents living together. If you have not appointed a guardian in your Will, then the court will decide on the future of your children.

If you are entering into a second marriage and have children from a previous relationship
In order to ensure your children’s inheritance is protected on your death, it is essential to make a Will and seek legal advice. Not doing so could result in your new spouse receiving all or the majority of your estate on your death and your children with nothing. At Equity & General, we are able to create a Trust in your Will(s) to protect your share of your estate, so that it will pass to your children.

If you want to leave a legacy to charity
Your Will is an opportunity to provide a legacy for the cause or causes you care most about. Around 15% of the income generated by charities in the UK comes from legacies left in Wills and at Equity & General, we are passionate about working with charities and individuals alike to ensure that legacies can be gifted by Will and charities can flourish.

Even if you already have a Will...can you be sure its is legally valid?

At Equity&General, we firmly believe that no one should die intestate (with a valid Will) irrespective of age and circumstances.

So, whether you already have a Will or would like to get the process started, we are here to help.
