Lucy Willmett, Solicitor

Make sure you have put the correct documents in place to ensure your family’s future and needs are protected. If you have any special arrangements or circumstances, provisions can be made to accommodate these.

Remember to review your will as your circumstances change. Sometimes it is not possible to make one will in your lifetime as people’s lives change – for example, a new addition to the family is a good time to review your will.

Don’t be afraid to engage in the process too early; it is never too soon to make a will.

Is there going to be a will reading?

No; will readings are very rarely conducted.

Am I too young to make a will?

If you have assets or a family, you should put a will in place.

I don’t have anyone to appoint as my executors, can my children be executors and beneficiaries?

Yes, your children can be executors and beneficiaries.
