Life is full of twists and turns and none of us can be sure what the future holds. That’s why creating a will makes good sense. As more and more people realise the importance of making a will, it’s no longer seen as something just for the elderly or ill but simply part of sound financial planning for any family or individual. As experienced Wills and Probate solicitors in Durham, we help individuals and families plan ahead with confidence.
With a will in place you can relax safe in the knowledge that your wishes will be carried out should anything happen to you. Making a will now also avoids legal problems arising for your family in the future.

Under the rules of intestacy, your estate will automatically pass to your spouse when you die.
However, it is worth considering Inheritance Tax implications. Although your spouse is exempt from paying Inheritance Tax on the assets you pass to them, there may be tax consequences for beneficiaries after they die.
