Frequently Asked Questions

Why is it important to make a will?

A will ensures your wishes are carried out after your passing, protecting your loved ones and making it easier for them to manage your estate. Without a will, your assets will be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not reflect your preferences.

What happens if someone dies without a will?

If someone dies intestate (without a will), their estate is distributed according to specific legal rules. This can sometimes result in unintended outcomes. Our team can help you navigate this process and provide clarity during a difficult time.

How long does probate take?

The probate process typically takes between 6 and 12 months, depending on the complexity of the estate. Our solicitors work efficiently to ensure the process is completed as smoothly and quickly as possible.

Can I update my will?

Yes, you can update your will at any time to reflect changes in your circumstances, such as marriage, divorce, or the birth of children. Our solicitors can help you make amendments to ensure your will remains accurate and up-to-date.

What are the duties of an executor?
