It is vital to make a Will if you want a say over how your assets are distributed, otherwise the decisions could be made for you and your nearest and dearest could lose out.

A Will gives you the peace of mind knowing that your assets will go to your family, friends or charities of choice and negate any potentially costly legal expenses.

What is probate?
At the time of a loved one’s passing, their possessions and assets must be distributed according to their Will, or by Statutory Rules if no Will is in place. In most cases, an executor can only begin the process of settling the estate once a Grant of Probate has been provided by the Probate Registry. In the circumstance that the estate requires inheritance tax be paid, this needs to be settled before a Grant of Probate can be obtained and the assets passed to beneficiaries.
If you have considered being the Executor of an estate then be aware it can be both a complex task and very stressful, especially when bereaved. As the Executor you are liable for any tax owed and any potential mistakes made, which is easy given the legal jargon that can be found within a Will if you are not fully trained. Always seek legal help from trained probate lawyers who are well versed in all the technicalities and processes of administering estates.
