Did you know that:
• 80% of people do not have Wills
• of those that do 2 out of 3 wills are out of date so no doubt why 1 death in 4 results in a family rift
Statistics show that:
• 4 out of 10 marriages end in divorce (Independent - March 1996)
• 5 out of 10 marriages end in divorce (Guardian – March 2008)
How many end in separation?
Consequently some children as a result are disinherited – There are more family relationships in stepfamilies.
Equally they can be disinherited by the subsequent remarriage of one partner
Did you know that:
• If you have to go into care the Local Authority will recoup the cost leaving the estate with approximately £20,000
• 200 homes sold each day to pay for long term care (1996)
• 12000 Accidental Deaths in 1998 (NSO)
• 100% of people will die

your home being taken and sold to pay for Long Term Care
who will be looking after your minor children
protecting an inheritance for your bloodline

protecting your children's inheritance should they divorce

Then Talk to Stevenage Wills
We know and appreciate how difficult and stressful it can sometimes be when dealing with important issues like writing a will or making plans for the future. Most of us will put off doing these things until another day. Unfortunately more often than not something happens and we are not suitably prepared.
If you die without having made a Will your relatives will be left to sort out the resulting confusion at a time when they are least likely to have the emotional resources and energy to do so. The distribution of your estate will be determined by the ancient Intestacy Rules and more likely will not represent your wishes and could cause considerable financial hardship for your family caused by the inevitable delay in releasing your assets. Please click here for more information.
It makes sense to make a Will, before its too late, so - for affordable peace of mind, please leave your contact details.
