Hertfordshire,UK - If you are in need of specialist help or simply want to find out how to administer an estate yourself, The Probate Bureau will help. They can tell you all you need to know about administering a loved one’s estate.

A will is a legal document that details how your possessions are distributed after death. Everyone who is over 18 and has assets they want to protect should make a will, as if this is not done your estate will be distributed in accordance with the government guidelines ( known as the Rules of Intestacy). This therefore means you have no say in who will receive your estate.

There are a few issues which are vital to remember when making a will.

If you have children under the age of 18, it is very important for you to have a will. If you die intestate (without a will) and are a single parent, Local Authority will decide who has guardianship of your children. This could be a close relative, a distant relative or a local care home. When you make a will, you can decide to whom you wish to entrust the care of your children.

Contact The Probate Bureau on 0808 256 2336 to find out what you should do, and more importantly, what you shouldn’t do before you do anything else. The Probate Bureau - a professional, reliable probate service in Hertfordshire.
