Writing a will is crucial, but it’s easy to make mistakes that could lead to complications later. Here are the three most common mistakes we see when writing a will and how to avoid them: 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥: It’s vital to review and update your will regularly, especially after significant life changes like marriage, divorce, or the birth of a child. An outdated will can lead to unintended consequences. 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐫: Your executor should be reliable, trustworthy, and capable of handling the responsibilities. Choosing the wrong person can cause delays and disputes. 𝐁𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐨𝐨 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜 𝐨𝐫 𝐓𝐨𝐨 𝐕𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐞: Clear and precise language in your will is crucial. Being too specific or too vague can lead to confusion and disputes among beneficiaries. If you don’t have a valid will in place, our Will solicitors in Edinburgh and Glasgow can go through your options and provide expert, tailored advice on making a will.

How is matrimonial property divided in Scotland? 🏡⚖️ In Scotland, the division of matrimonial property is guided by five key principles under the Family Law (Scotland) Act 1985: 🤝 Fair Sharing: The net value of matrimonial property should be shared fairly. 👩🏽🤝👨🏼 Economic Consideration: Fair account is taken of any economic advantage or disadvantage suffered by either party. 👶🏼 Child Care Costs: The cost of caring for children under 16 should be shared fairly. 💳 Financial Dependency: Provision is made for those financially dependent on their spouse to help them adjust. 💷 Hardship Prevention: Financial provision should prevent serious financial hardship. Our divorce solicitors are here to explain to you what the law is in relation to divorce so that you can be clear on what to expect and how to deal with it. https://brnw.ch/21wMjjc
