Let's start with a very broad question, which is why are so many people, especially younger people, put off doing this kind of admin? voice-verified

So there'll be some people who'll be watching and listening who will think, Well, I don't have a partner, I don't have kids, I don't have big assets. voice-verified

So I don't necessarily need a will. voice-verified

But what would happen to their assets after they die if they don't have that will in place? voice-verified

So if your will is in test date, can you break down where your assets would go after you die? voice-verified

And if you have parents that you get on with and love in your lifetime, that might not be an issue. voice-verified

But if you have had an estrangement in your family, for example, that can be a situation where you wouldn't be that comfortable with that state of affairs. voice-verified

And in your experience, it's not just about a house. voice-verified

There can be other things that you own that are of of value that you you want to make sure go to the right place. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

I think that's a very human thing to just want to know what's going to happen to your stuff after you pass away. voice-verified

And so voice-verified

Talk us through what the process of getting a will is actually like. voice-verified

Hm. voice-verified

Cause I think sometimes people are worried that if they don't do their will properly, then they can actually create more problems further down the line. voice-verified

So how can we make sure that we don't have any problems with a will in the future? voice-verified

And can we talk through what what would happen if you didn't have a will in place? voice-verified

So for example, if you've bought a property with a partner, do they automatically get your share of the property? voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

And marital status can really matter as well here because is the concept of having a common law partner, is that actually recognised in law or not? voice-verified
