The following are typical situations when you should change the Will:
- When you get married
- Birth of a child
- Divorce
- Death of a partner
- For Tax reasons – changes in tax law possibly
- A Change of Heart – a breakdown or souring of relationship where you feel the person does not now deserve a bequest
- There is a significant change in lives of one or more of the beneficiaries – marriage, divorce, child birth, disability etc
A Will should be reviewed regularly ( one one of the above or every 4-5 years).
