Free Wills Month takes place every March and October for those aged 55 and over. Martin recommended getting a gold standard solicitor-drafted will - and there are ways to cut the cost of this. If you make a legal will, you can decide exactly who and how much of your assets go to who after you have passed. The rules are different in Scotland and Northern Ireland. If the estate is worth more than £322,000 and there are surviving children and grandchildren, the spouse would inherit half of the remaining assets and the other half would be divided equally between the children and grandchildren. If you live in England and Wales and you are married or in a civil partnership, your spouse would automatically inherit the first £322,000 of your estate. Only married or civil partners and some other close relatives can inherit under these rules. If a person dies without a will, their estate is distributed under intestacy rules.
