What happens

if you pass

without a will?

If you don’t have a will when you pass, your estate will be shared in accordance with the law, rather than your wishes.

This can mean your estate passes to someone you hadn’t intended – or that someone you want to pass things on to ends up with nothing.

Ensure your wishes are carried out.

Drafting a will ensures that your desires are honored and your valuable assets are distributed to the individuals of your choosing.


There were a total number of 485 unclaimed estates in 2023/24.

This means these people did not leave Wills stating beneficiaries and no immediate family has been found or come forward so far. Assets essentially sit there and will eventually pass to the Crown.

What is an Attestation clause and why is it so important?

December 17, 2024
The attestation clause of a Will is the clause that explains the circumstances in which the Will has been signed and witnessed. Whilst including a form of attestation clause is heavily encouraged, it is not a legal requirement, but we would always recommend one being included as it provides evidence that these were the wishes of the Testator, and the Testator had intent of making the Will as well as knowledge and approval of its contents. Ensuring the Will is signed and witnessed correctly is of upmost importance, as any minor error can have a major affect the validity of the Will. There are two focal points from the Wills Act (1837), that I want to touch on as they're relevant to the correct attestation of a Will.
