Writing Wills
Why Having a Will Is One of the Most Important Things You’ll Ever Do
When it comes to planning for the future, few documents are as vital as your Will. Yet, millions of people in the UK still haven’t made one — often because it feels like something to “get around to later.” Unfortunately, without a valid Will, your wishes may not be carried out, and your loved ones could face unnecessary stress and expense.
At Secure Wills, we believe that peace of mind starts with good planning — and that begins with a properly written Will.
💡 What Happens If You Don’t Have a Will?
If you die without a Will, your estate is distributed under intestacy laws, which decide who inherits — not you. This means:
Your partner might not automatically receive what you intended.
Children from previous relationships could miss out.
Family disputes or delays in probate can arise.
The people you trust most may have no say in key decisions.
A Will gives you control — ensuring your money, property, and personal belongings go exactly where you want.
👨👩👧 Protecting Those You Love
A Will is not just about assets. It’s about people.
You can use it to:
Appoint guardians for young children.
Provide for your partner or dependants.
Leave meaningful gifts to friends, charities, or causes close to your heart.
Create trusts to protect vulnerable or younger beneficiaries.
⚖️ Avoiding Stress and Cost for Your Family
Without a Will, the process of administering your estate becomes longer, more complex, and often more expensive.
With a Will, you make things easier — sparing your loved ones from difficult decisions and giving them clarity at a challenging time.
