Why do I need one?

If you haven’t made a Will and you die things could be complicated. You may need to consider some of the following points and plan ahead just in case …
•           Would your partner be protected financially if something happened to you?
•           Who would look after any children under the age of 18 should both you and your partner die?
•           Would your children (of any age) be protected financially if something happened to you?
•           If you’ve been married more than once, have you made proper provision for the children of the first marriage?
•           Do you want the Government to receive all your money?
•           Are you worried about Inheritance Tax?
•           What would happen if your partner were to be admitted to residential or nursing care?
•           Who would look after your pet(s) and would they be protected financially?
