It should be noted that the information contained in this section relates to our current understanding of the law of England & Wales which is subject to change. Laws in other parts of the UK will differ.
Everything you leave when you die, less anything you owe, is called your 'estate'. A will sets out what is to happen to your estate. It is a legal document which, although it can be changed after your death in some circumstances, will normally be followed as written.
Another very important reason for making a will is so that you can decide who you want to look after your children if you have a young family.
If you do not make a will, your possessions will not necessarily be passed on in the way you would choose. This is a particular risk if you live with an unmarried partner.
(Inheritance Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975.
THE FINANCIAL CONDUCT AUTHORITY DOES NOT REGULATE WILLS AND ESTATE PLANNING.
