Shajies Willwriting Services has started a new Will writing service in the
Waltham Forest area in association with National Willmakers.
Recent research has showed that a staggering 70% of the British population
does not have a Will. People mostly are well protected with life assurances
and savings, but ignore the making of a Will, although this can be as
important as a life assurance.
If you die without a legally valid Will, it is said you died "Intestate".
The Law of Intestacy means that the State writes one for you and will
distribute your possessions according to this law. This means that you have
no say about who will administer your Estate, who will be the Guardian of
your minor children and who will receive a special gift from your Estate
(for example your car, watch, etc). According to the Law of Intestacy, the
husband or wife does not get everything automatically. If there are
children, they have an immediate right to part of your Estate. And if you
are an unmarried couple, you should write a Will because unmarried couples
are not recognized by the Law of Intestacy and will receive nothing. Not
making a Will often causes many problems to family and friends, creating
financial hardship with frozen bank accounts at the worst possible time.
Sometimes it is even necessary to sell the family home, simply because no
Will has been written.
So why don't people make a Will? Sometimes it is out of ignorance, because
they don't know what will happen if they die "Intestate". Sometimes it is
because they are uncertain about the costs involved. Sometimes it is because
they need to take time off from work in order to visit a solicitor. For a
lot of people writing a Will is something they have been meaning to do for
years, but have just not got around to it. Whatever the reason is, everybody
should know they need a Will and it is difficult to suggest reasons for not
doing so. And whenever you have written a Will, it should be checked
regularly if it is still up-to-date.
Shajies Willwriting Services offer its services within the whole UK, except
Northern Ireland. A home visit service is available in London and Greater
London only, if you are living outside of London an application form will be
sent and an appointment by phone booked. A consultant will arrange to visit

points that need to be considered will be discussed and the consultant will
