What happens if you don't have a will?
Select the situation closest to yours and see what can happen when there isn't a will in place.
✕ Without a will
Your spouse receives your personal belongings, a fixed statutory sum and part of whatever remains. Your children inherit the remainder under intestacy rules, whether or not that reflects what you would have chosen.
✓ With a will
You decide how your estate is divided and can make clear provision for your spouse, children and anyone else you want to protect.
✕ Without a will
An unmarried partner has no automatic right to inherit under intestacy rules simply because you've lived together for many years. Your estate may instead pass to your children or other relatives.
✓ With a will
You can make clear provision for your partner while also deciding how you want your children and other beneficiaries to be looked after.
✕ Without a will
Your estate passes through a legal order of relatives. Friends, godchildren and charities you care about do not automatically inherit.
✓ With a will
You decide who benefits, including friends, relatives, godchildren and charities outside your immediate family.
✕ Without a will
Your estate may be divided between your children according to intestacy rules, without reflecting individual circumstances or providing for stepchildren.
✓ With a will
You decide how to divide your estate to reflect your family's actual circumstances, including provision for stepchildren where appropriate.
✕ Without proper planning
Your share of a business may pass under your estate rather than in the way you and your co-owners expected, potentially creating difficult decisions for both your family and the business.
✓ With proper planning
Appropriate succession planning can help protect the value intended for your family while giving the business a clearer route to continue.
