A will provides the assurance that your wishes will be met after you die

It’s fairly safe to say that the idea of dying isn’t something most of us care to dwell on, and it’s for that reason that so many people put off making a will.

 

But no matter how difficult the subject can be, we cannot stress enough the importance of having a will in place. There is no other way to ensure that your estate will be distributed to the people who you most want to benefit from it, nor is there a surer means of guaranteeing your wishes – whatever those may be – will be met after you die.

 

Shiells’ solicitors have many years of experience in will writing and have a thorough, working knowledge of the legal requirements involved, as well as the executry process.

How does a will benefit you and your loved ones?

  • It ensures that your assets go to the people to whom you would want them to go

  • It ensures your special wishes will be carried out, whether those relate to your funeral plans, your home, or items that belong to you

  • It will spare your family the stress and difficulty of resolving your affairs and distributing your estate in line with the complex (and oftentimes expensive) Scottish rules of intestacy

  • You can give to charities or organisations that you care about, should you wish to do so

Will trusts

You can have further control over the distribution of your estate, and ensure that as much of it as possible goes to your loved ones, by including a trust in your will.
