In life, uncertainty is a constant. While we cannot predict the future, we can prepare for it. A professionally drafted Will ensures your estate is passed on according to your wishes, shielding your loved ones from the delays and disputes often triggered by intestacy.
Are you ready to take control of your estate and leave nothing to chance? Explore how Burbage Finance can guide you through a seamless, secure Will writing process.
Why You Need a Will
A Will is not just a document. It is your voice—legally binding—beyond your lifetime. Whether you are a homeowner, a parent, or a business owner, a Will ensures that:
- Your estate is distributed exactly as you intend
- You avoid legal ambiguities and family disputes
- You minimise tax liabilities and probate delays
- Your chosen executors and guardians are appointed formally
At Burbage Finance, our bespoke Will writing services in Coventry provide clarity and peace of mind.
Consequences of Dying Without a Will
Dying intestate—without a valid Will—leaves your estate in legal limbo. Without clear instructions:
- A Grant of Probate cannot be issued efficiently
- The rules of intestacy determine who inherits, often ignoring cohabiting partners or stepchildren
- Estate administration becomes time-consuming and costly
By engaging with Burbage Finance’s estate planning experts, you avoid the pitfalls of probate complications and inheritance disputes.
