FAQ's

Got Questions before you reach out? No problem! You can find Answers to Our Most Frequently Asked Questions, on Wills, below:

  • 1. What is a will and why do I need one?

    A will is a legal document that outlines your wishes regarding the distribution of your assets and the care of any minor children after your death. Having a will ensures that your wishes are respected, helps avoid family disputes, and makes the process smoother for your loved ones.

  • 2. How often should I update my will?

    It’s recommended to review your will every 3-5 years or after any major life event, such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or a significant change in assets. Keeping your will up to date ensures it reflects your current wishes.

  • 3. What happens if I die without a will?

    If you die without a will, known as dying intestate, your assets will be distributed according to the laws of your country or state, which may not align with your personal wishes. This process can also be more time-consuming and stressful for your loved ones.



  • 4. Can I make changes to my will after it’s been created?

    Yes, you can update your will at any time by adding a codicil (a legal amendment) or creating a new will altogether. Regular reviews help keep your will current with any changes in your life.



  • 5. Do I need a solicitor to create a will?

    All our wills are legally approved by our in-house team of solicitors, ensuring they fully reflect your wishes and meet all legal requirements. This helps prevent errors and provides peace of mind that your will is valid and properly drafted.


  • 6. Who should I choose as my executor?

    Your executor should be someone you trust to manage your estate, handle paperwork, and make decisions on your behalf. It could be a family member, friend, or professional adviser. We can provide guidance to help you make the best choice.



  • 7. What’s the difference between an executor and a beneficiary?

    An executor is responsible for managing your estate according to your will, while a beneficiary is someone who receives assets or inheritance. The executor’s role is to ensure your wishes are carried out fairly and correctly.

  • 8. Can I leave gifts to charities in my will?

    Yes, you can leave gifts, donations, or specific amounts to charities in your will. This can be a meaningful way to support causes that are important to you even after you’re gone.



  • 9. How do I keep my will safe?

    Once your will is completed, we will provide you with a copy and store it securely. Inform your executor of its location to ensure it’s easily accessible when needed.



  • 10. Is my will confidential?

    Yes, your will and all related discussions are completely confidential. Your privacy is our top priority, and we ensure that all information is handled with the highest level of discretion and security.
