What is a Will?
A Will is a legal document that specifies your wishes regarding the distribution of your assets upon your death. A Will allows you to appoint a guardian(s) to care of 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 for administering a deceased person’s estate. It involves validating the Will, appointing an executor, settling any debts, and distributing the assets to the beneficiaries. In the absence of a Will, probate includes identifying legal heirs and distributing the estate according to intestacy laws. This process ensures the estate is managed and distributed in compliance with the deceased’s wishes or legal requirements.
