wills and lpas in ollerton.

Ollerton is about twenty-five minutes from me, down the A614 side of Sherwood Forest. There’s Old Ollerton, with the watermill and the church by the river, and New Ollerton, which grew up round the colliery. I visit both, and Boughton and Walesby too.

The visit is included in the price. Daytime or evening, whatever suits. We’ll sit at your table and I’ll go through everything in plain English.

what if you don’t have children?

A lot of wills advice assumes you’ve got children to leave things to. Plenty of people don’t. And for them, a will matters even more.

If you’re married with no children and you die without a will, your husband or wife usually inherits everything. That might be what you want. But then it all passes under their will, or their family’s, not yours. Your side of the family may get nothing.

If you’re single, or living with a partner you’re not married to, the intestacy rules pick your relatives in a fixed order: parents, then brothers and sisters, then nieces and nephews, and so on. Your partner gets nothing automatically. Close friends, godchildren and charities get nothing either.

A will lets you decide. You might want to split things between both sides of the family. You might want to leave something to a friend who’s been good to you, or a cause you care about. You might want to name an executor you trust, rather than a relative you rarely see.

A single will is £149 and mirror wills are £249, including the visit. There’s more on the wills page.

If you’re in Ollerton, book a home visit or ring me.
