However, the reality is that if someone dies without having made a Will, the consequences for the loved ones they leave behind can be devastating.

In short, making a Will is the only way to ensure that your exact wishes are carried out after your death. If a person dies without leaving a valid Will, they are said to die “Intestate” and their assets are therefore at the mercy of what are know as the Rules of Intestacy. These Rules set out the strict order in which that person’s relatives are to receive the whole of or a share of that person’s estate.

Making a Will is easier than you think. At The Eric Whitehead Partnership our Will department will guide you expertly and carefully through the process of making a Will to ensure that your final wishes will be carried out.
