If the person searching doesn’t know your will’s location, they may feel they’re not honouring your wishes. Imagine the stress of a member of your family who can’t find your will. Wills can clarify how much, if any, of your estate should be distributed to any specific person, whether they are in your immediate family or not. In the same way, any other division of your property to beneficiaries should be made clear in your written will so there are no questions about what should go to whom.Īnother example of when a written will helps is in the case of someone who has been in more than one marriage or civil partnership. If you wish to leave money to charities or specific organisations, then a will is the only way to make your wishes certain after you die. Especially if there are children involved, it is very important to speak clearly about your wishes. It’s very unpleasant to think about, but several family members may have a different view of your estate and how it can benefit the beneficiaries of your will. A will helps your surviving spouse, civil partner, or family members to understand your wishesĪ will is your last chance to communicate your wishes with your loved ones, so we think it’s pretty important to make sure those wishes are heard loud and clear. You can simply write your will, do what you need to make it legal, and store it in a safe place for your loved ones to read later.
At Bequest, we register all of our premium wills with the National Wills Registry for free. There is absolutely nothing in the law that requires a will to be registered for it to be valid. You do not have to register your own will, but it’s a very good idea
