🥊 Ricky Hatton's reported estate situation is an important reminder of why having a Will matters.

Many people assume Wills are only necessary for those with significant wealth, but that's not the case. If you die without a Will, the law decides who inherits your estate and who manages your affairs. This may not reflect your wishes or provide for the people most important to you.

A Will can help you:
✅ Decide who inherits your assets
✅ Protect your children by appointing guardians
✅ Provide for unmarried partners, friends or charities
✅ Choose who administers your estate
✅ Ensure your wishes are followed

It's also worth remembering that having a Will is only part of the picture. Marriage, divorce, buying a home, starting a business or welcoming children and grandchildren can all mean it's time to review your arrangements.

📅 When was the last time you reviewed your Will?

Don't leave important decisions to chance. If you'd like advice on making a Will or updating an existing one, our team is here to help.

Have you lost money investing in the Galgate Silk Mill student accommodation scheme?

With Galgate Developments Ltd now dissolved, many investors may be wondering what options are left. While recovering losses directly from the developer can be difficult, there may be important questions to ask about the advice you received before investing.

In our latest article, we explore whether a conveyancing solicitor may have failed to properly explain the risks involved in this type of property investment and what that could mean for affected investors.

If you invested in Galgate Silk Mill, now is the time to review your paperwork and understand your legal position. Time limits may apply.

Bought a student apartment at The Villas, and the rent you were promised hasn't arrived?

Schemes like this are often sold with "assured" rent for the first few years. But that promise is usually only as strong as the company making it. If the company can't pay, you may have less protection than you thought.

One key question is whether your own solicitor explained those risks before you bought. Our team can look through your paperwork and talk you through your options. Time limits apply, so it's worth getting advice sooner rather than later.

🐾 What would happen to your pets if you were no longer here to care for them?

For many of us, our pets are part of the family. Yet when planning for the future, it's easy to overlook what would happen to them if the unexpected occurred.

Your will can help ensure your beloved pet is cared for by someone you trust. You can also leave guidance about their routine, veterinary care, medication, and even make financial provision to help with their ongoing care.

A will isn't just about protecting your money and property. It's about looking after everyone who matters to you, including your pets. ❤️

If you haven't reviewed your will recently, or you've never made one, we'd be happy to discuss your options.

Do you have a Will in place?

Recent reports surrounding boxer Ricky Hatton's estate have served as a reminder of the importance of having a valid and up-to-date Will.

If you die without a Will, known as dying "intestate", the law decides who inherits your estate. This may not reflect your wishes and could leave important decisions about your assets, children, and loved ones out of your hands.

A Will allows you to:
✅ Decide who inherits your assets
✅ Appoint guardians for children under 18
✅ Protect loved ones and vulnerable beneficiaries
✅ Choose who will administer your estate
✅ Leave gifts to friends, family or charities

It's also important to review your Will regularly, especially following major life events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of children or grandchildren, purchasing a property, or starting a business.

A Will isn't just for the wealthy. It's about ensuring your wishes are known and your loved ones are protected.

If you haven't made a Will, or your circumstances have changed since you last reviewed it, now may be the right time to take action.

Disciplinary meetings: Why employees should ask to be accompanied

An Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) decision has confirmed that the legal right to be accompanied is usually triggered when a worker asks to bring someone with them. Employees should make that request clearly, especially where a workplace meeting could lead to disciplinary action.
