Research has shown that one-third of the population has not made a Will. Most people assume that all their possessions pass automatically on their death to their partner or members of the family. This is not necessarily the case.

If there is no Will, the estate will pass under the laws of Intestacy, which means the surviving spouse may only receive £125,000 out of the estate. The only way to exert control over your assets and to ensure your estate is divided as you choose is to write a Will.
