During 2025, there have been some significant changes to the Will making process. There have also been increased reasons to use Will writing solicitors in North Wales in order to ensure estates are in good order in the event of a testator’s death.
Issues ranging from potential changes to inheritance tax to the growing complexities of modern assets will all contribute to the urgency of creating this important document.
In 2025, significant changes to the laws governing Will making have happened, in part to encourage more people to make a Will. Some of these amendments have been introduced because of the increasing complexities of modern family life in 2025. This includes more blended families and the rise in divorces, as well as second and even third marriages. Ambiguous rules have been clarified, and it is hoped these will positively impact family disputes.
More vulnerable adults have been protected this year when they choose to make a Will, and digital assets have been recognised as an important part of someone’s estate. Many Wills solicitors in North Wales have updated their advice recently to encourage their customers to review their Wills every five years. The Wills Act 2025 does still emphasise the importance of having a valid Will, and witnesses are required to ensure this document is correctly completed. Electronic Wills are currently being considered, and it is anticipated that these could be considered legal soon.
