What is a Will?
A Will is a crucial legal document that outlines your wishes for the distribution of your property upon your death. A Will allows you to appoint a guardian(s) to care for any minor children after your death and to decide who you wish to deal with the administration of your estate whether this is a family member, a friend or a professional such as a solicitor. Creating a Will ensures that your loved ones are provided for and that your assets are distributed according to your wishes and can avoid any disputes between family members.
What is probate?
Probate is the legal process of administering the estate of a deceased person. It involves proving the Will’s validity (if there is one), appointing an executor, paying any outstanding debts and taxes, and distributing the assets to the beneficiaries. If there is no Will, probate includes identifying legal heirs and distributing the estate according to intestacy laws. This process ensures the estate is settled in accordance with the deceased’s wishes or legal guidelines.
