Keeping your will up to date
| If you care about what happens
to your property after you die, you should make a will. Without one,
the State directs who inherits, so your friends, favourite charities
and relatives may get nothing.
It is particularly important to make a will if you are not married
to your partner. This is because the law does not automatically
recognise partners as having the same rights as husbands and wives.
As a result, even if you've lived together for many years, your
partner may be left with nothing if you have not made a will. |
