BELLIS: THE IMPORTANCE OF WRITING A WILL
Writing a will allows you to choose what happens to your assets and possessions after you die. For many, this is a chore and easy to put off.
Seeking professional advice is the first step. A solicitor will offer impartial legal advice and guide you to make the choices that suit your personal circumstances and your family and friends first.
A solicitor can also advise you on how inheritance tax is likely to be charged on your estate and how this might be reduced. For example, legacies to charities such as College are exempt from inheritance tax and this can be helpful information when making your plans.
Gifts in wills have played a critical role in delivering educational programmes and projects throughout our community and across the estate in recent years. Every legacy gift to College benefits a pupil and is unique and valued.
