Research suggests that more than two-thirds of people in the UK don't have a Will.
Many people believe they are either too young to write a Will or that it's too expensive or they don't have enough money or property to make writing a Will worthwhile.
The truth is that dying without a Will can make what is already a difficult time a lot harder for your family.
By writing a Will, you leave your loved ones clear instructions on your wishes, from who will receive specific items to the kind of funeral you would like.
A Power of Attorney (PoA) is a written document where you are authorising someone to make decisions on your behalf, this could be about your welfare and or your financial affairs (continuing PoA).
The PoA document will show the people who are your attorneys and what their powers are and it will identify when their powers will begin.
Having a PoA will allow your attorneys to make your decisions for you if you lose the capacity to do so, either by ill health or by accident.
If you are 16 years of age or over you can instruct a PoA.
If the person who dies leaves a Will, it will usually name one or more people to act as the Executors of the Will - that is, to administer their estate.
If you are the named Executor of a Will you may need to apply for Confirmation of the Estate.
Confirmation is an official document which the executors may need to administer the estate.
It is issued by the local court.
If there is no Will (known as dying intestate) the process is more complicated.
An Executry Petition is required to be made to the local court to appoint an executor and a bond of caution is also required to be obtained from an insurance company.
