Making a Will is very important. However it is unfortunately forgotten or just delayed. If you do not make a will and die, then you are dying "intestate" were the government and the law will determine what happens to your estate, instead of you. This is not always, what you think or what you would expect it would be.

Not having a Will can cause increased stress, confusion, arguments, and extortionate legal fees for your loved ones, which you can avoid.

Even if you do not have many assets to speak of, this will save your loved ones a lot of time, money and hassle. If you do have property, bank accounts and/or any type of investments, then having a last will and testament is extremely advisable.

Your estate is the total assets you have accumulated over the course of your life. This is the total sum of possessions, property and money at the time of your death less any debts that are outstanding.

Requirements for a valid Will

1. It must be made by a person who is 18 years old or older.
2. It must be made voluntarily without any pressure or duress from any other person.
3. It must be made by a person who is of sound mind. This means the person must be fully aware of the nature of the document being written and aware of the property and identify of the people who will inherit.
4. It must be made be in writing.
5. It must be signed by the person making the will in the presence of two witnesses.
6. It must be signed by the two witnesses, in the presence of the person making the will.

Please Note:

• The two witnesses cannot benefit or inherit under the will. If they do then they forfeit their inheritance. In addition, the witnesses cannot be directly related to a beneficiary.
• It is not a legal requirement for a solicitor to be a witness; just that it is signed by two competent people.
• The will should be dated but can still be valid if not. Problems can arise if there is more than one will.
