WillsWills are often misunderstood and undervalued. Cited as the most important piece of paper you will ever own, the majority of adults do not have one - preferring to wait until middle age or beyond before they get one.
This website aims to explain all the key issues simply, and in an easy to understand way. All the articles are written by professionals in the will and probate industry - solicitors, professional will writers, probate specialists, tax specialists and other legal professionals. We hope you find all the information you need, and can use it to make the right choice for your own needs. ProbateProbate concerns the sorting out and finalising of a dead persons estate. It can be a complex area to deal with, and many people choose to hire probate professionals to deal with this process. There are many people though, that try to handle probate themselves, and within this website you will find articles on the issues arising from probate, and the key points to focus on.
Writing from experience, our professional contributors will share their knowledge and expertise with you, helping you to make the right choices. Whether you intend to use a professional, or handle probate alone, you will find a wealth of information available here. |
About our contributorsOur contributors are from across the UK, and have a varied legal background. All are dedicated to sharing their knowledge, and are able to take enquiries from readers. It is also possible to contact the magazine for guidance, and we will put you in touch with a local adviser who can help you.
The magazine will also be printing industry comments and articles from the people who are guiding the will and probate field today. This will give you the reader the chance to appreciate how the law is changing, how regulation is affecting the industry, and how this might affect your choices when considering a will or when you require a probate service. |

EPA's and LPA'sOur new section on EPA's and LPA's should help people who are thinking about taking one, or whether this would be a good idea for a relative.
