Next Steps
1
Get Started
Make an appointment with your financial or legal adviser. They can help you decide what sort of legacy to leave. See sample language for making a bequest, but we urge you to consult with a legal or financial adviser.
2
Make Sure:
- To take advantage of any savings in inheritance tax.
- Your will is legal and valid for your country.
The cost of using a professional adviser is often very little when compared to the legal costs your family may incur should you pass away without leaving a valid will.
