What Your Will Should Contain

A comprehensive will should encompass several crucial elements. It should clearly articulate your intentions for the distribution of your assets, specifying beneficiaries and the allocation of specific properties or possessions. You should appoint an executor, someone responsible for managing the estate and ensuring your wishes are carried out. If you have minor children, appointing guardians in your will is essential to ensure their care.

A will should address debts and liabilities, providing instructions for settling outstanding obligations. Finally, your will should be dated, signed and witnessed in accordance with legal requirements. Ensuring these components are thoughtfully included helps create a legally sound document that minimises the potential for disputes and simplifies asset distribution after your passing.

At Knibb Kaine & Associates, we will make sure all the correct elements of your will are in place.
