Making a Will in later life 

The importance of Making a Will

Make a Will now for real peace of mind

It is a strange fact that around 70% of people have not made a Will, but the consequences of dying without one (intestate) can be serious

Everyone urgently needs a Will; If you don’t make a Will you die intestate, which means that everything you own is distributed under rules laid down by law irrespective of the wishes of your family.

Without a Will, your wishes are ignored and you cannot control who will inherit your property after your death.

Most people know they need a Will but simply ‘haven’t got around to it yet’!

To help cope with this problem, laterlife.com has identified Secureplan – a specialist Will provider that offers the convenience of a mail order service with the security of your Will being drafted and issued by practising firms of solicitors.

Wills from Secureplan normally cost ?59 (+VAT) for an individual or ?108 (+VAT) for a pair of ‘Mutual Wills’ suitable for Husband and Wife or partners. There is also the option of secure storage with one of Secureplan’s firms of solicitors

Laterlife has also negotiated special reduced rates for Laterlife Visitors ?49 (+VAT) and ?88 (+VAT) for single and joint Wills respectively for a limited period and a further discount for Laterlife Club Members at only ?44 (+VAT) and ?78 (+VAT). This service is available to Laterlife visitors and their families. Your Children should also make a Will as they are likely to have young children themselves who will need caring for should the worst happen.
