What Should Be Included in a Will

Many people ask a common question: What should actually go into a will?

A well prepared will does much more than simply list who receives your belongings.

It helps ensure your wishes are clear and your family knows exactly how your estate should be managed.

Typically a will includes:

• The appointment of executors who will manage your estate
• Instructions about who inherits your assets
• Guardians for children under 18
• Specific gifts to individuals or charities
• Instructions for dividing the remainder of your estate

For families across Portsmouth, Gosport and Fareham, having these details clearly written down can prevent uncertainty during an already difficult time.

It also helps ensure your estate is handled efficiently.

Many people also use their will to leave personal messages or ensure treasured possessions go to the people who will value them most.

If you are unsure where to begin, speaking to a professional can make the process much easier.
