The simple answer to this lady’s question when it came to writing her Wills in Takeley is that it is generally not wise to use a DIY kit like something that you could buy out of a high street retailer like WH Smith for between £9.99p and £14.99p UNLESS what you want to do with your estate is EXTREMELY straightforward and you follow the instructions provided VERY carefully.
Otherwise the main reasons why a DIY Wills should not be used include:
(a) The fact that you want to make a very specific passing of assets
(b) You have concerns about your home being sold to pay for care fees
(c) You have a financial dependent that is incapable of caring for themselves
(d) There are children from a previous marriage
(e) Your main residence is not in the UK
(f) You do not have British citizenship.
(g) You own property internationally.
(h) You own a business.
(i) A trust needs to be set up to aid the distribution of your estate
(j) The reduction or avoidance of inheritance tax is important to you
(k) You have young children that need a guardian and a trust.
With this in mind, it is arguably little wonder that the majority of people do not want to write their own Wills in places like Takeley in Essex because they are afraid they may miss something important or their intentions may be misinterpreted so as to bring about family conflicts between those left behind with no means for you to rectify the problem with your having passed away.
