Wills

Having a valid Will is essential to ensure that your estate is distributed in accordance with your personal wishes upon your death. Without a Will, your assets will be divided under the statutory rules of intestacy, which may not reflect your intentions or the needs of your loved ones. At 828 Law, we provide expert guidance in drafting clear, legally robust Wills that give you peace of mind and protect your estate for the future.

What are the consequences of dying without a Will?

This can lead to significant distress and complications for those you leave behind. 828 Law can advise you on how to avoid such outcomes and ensure your estate passes to those you choose.
