Your Will is the most important document you will ever sign.
It disposes of all of your assets (including your home) after your death.
Despite this, it is estimated that up to 70% of the population do not have a current Will.
Making a Will creates certainty, reduces worry and gives you the peace of mind of knowing exactly how your money, property and possessions will be dealt with after your death.
