Wills and Probateย – Making sure the right money, goes to the right people, at the right time
Dying without a Will in the UK
If you die without leaving a Will in England and Wales, your property, money, assets and possessions will be shared out according to the Rules of Intestacy. This means that the State will decide who inherits what from your Estate and what percentage each beneficiary will receive in the split.
The result of this process can mean that certain assets that make up your Estate can pass to someone you hadnโt intended to be a beneficiary, or that someone you want to leave something to, receives nothing.
The rules for Scotland and Northern Ireland are slightly different but there are some common principles.
