Making a will when you are Single
If you are single and own assets of any kind, having a will is essential. It gives you control over who benefits from your estate and helps avoid confusion or disputes later on.
A Will Matters Even If You Are Single
If you are single, you need a will just as much as a couple in a marriage with children. If you have any kind of asset – even if it is mortgaged – you have an “estate” and should make a will. If the unforeseen “thing” happens, you would like your estate to go to your chosen beneficiaries and not according to the laws of “intestacy” – which is what dying without a will is called – which seldom accords with people’s wishes.
If you are a widow or widower, you need a will to ensure that your estate also passes to your preferred beneficiaries even if it is all going to your children. It will save complications and arguments. Also, you may want to include grandchildren or nieces/nephews.
When a Will Is Out of Date or Hard to Locate
Some wills are very old and executors may have passed away, or it may have been stored with a solicitor who may have moved away. If a person is a little low on relatives whom they would like to inherit, then they could leave legacies to their favourite charities.
