Absolutely. It’s important to update your will whenever there are significant changes in your life, such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or any major financial changes. We at Hayes Wills & Estate Planning make the process of updating your will straightforward and stress-free, ensuring it always reflects your current wishes and circumstances.

No, there are no hidden costs in our services. Transparency in pricing is fundamental to our business ethos. Before beginning any work, we provide a detailed breakdown of costs, ensuring you understand all fees involved in your will writing or estate planning process. Our goal is to offer clear, straightforward pricing with no surprises.

The time it takes to complete a will can vary depending on the complexity of your estate and your specific requirements. Typically, the process can be completed within 2 to 4 weeks from the initial consultation to the finalisation of the document. However, more complex situations may take a bit longer, and we strive to accommodate any need for expedience or specific timelines our clients may have.

If you pass away without a will, your estate will be distributed according to the rules of intestacy, which might not reflect your personal wishes. This can lead to potentially complicated legal situations for your loved ones and may result in unintended individuals inheriting your assets. At Hayes Wills & Estate Planning, we help ensure that your estate is distributed according to your specific desires and provide guidance to avoid such complications, making the process of managing your legacy clear and straightforward.

To draft your will effectively, we need various pieces of information, including details about your assets (like property, investments, and savings), liabilities, and any specific wishes for how your assets should be distributed among your beneficiaries. Additionally, you will need to provide information about your family structure, potential guardians for any minor children, and preferences for executors who will manage the estate. This information helps us ensure that your will is comprehensive and aligned with your intentions.
