A father left a will that explicitly named his daughter and cut her out entirely.

A court still awarded her £123,000 from his estate.

It's one of those cases that makes you stop and think about how much can hinge on the details. Our June newsletter covers this and a few other stories that surprised even us, including a £1.2 million tax mistake on a Cornwall estate, what's coming for pensions in 2027, and a handful of wills that made legal history for all the wrong reasons.

Did you know that around 60% of UK adults don't have a Will?

That means if something happened tomorrow, the law - not you - would decide what happens to your home, your savings, and everything you've worked for.

It doesn't have to be that way.

We have free seminars coming to a location near you:

📍 Hereford Racecourse - 26th May
📍 Liverpool John Lennon Airport - 2nd June
📍 Huddersfield, Bagden Hall Hotel - 9th June
📍 Darlington, Redworth Hall Hotel - 16th June

And many more...!

Come along. Bring someone you love. It's free, and it might be one of the most useful things you do this year.

What a spring it's been! ☀️

Over the past month, we've taken our free seminars to Wolverhampton, Crewe, Harrogate, and most recently the stunning Crowne Plaza Royal Victoria Hotel in Sheffield - and every single event has been thriving.

Next stop: Hereford Racecourse - Tuesday 26th May, 10am or 2pm 🏇

Join us for a completely free seminar covering:
✅ Wills & Trusts
✅ Lasting Power of Attorney

🤔 Ever heard of a will that leaves more to a pet than a person?
Or one that tries to influence who someone marries?

Wills and inheritance can be stranger than you might think.

In our May newsletter, we share some of the more unusual inheritance stories, alongside the real issues affecting families right now, including:

🎤 The Amy Winehouse auction dispute and what it shows about personal possessions
⏳ Probate delays still holding estates up
⚖️ More families using caveats to stop probate
📂 Concerns over missing paperwork
🏠 Growing inheritance tax pressure
🔐 The risks around digital assets and access

With more families being drawn into estate planning than ever before, making sure everything is clear, organised and up to date has never been more important.

It might even change the way you think about your own planning.

This year has brought no shortage of reminders that estate planning is becoming more complicated, more contested and, for many families, more urgent. Probate delays are still leaving estates tied up for months or even years, disputes are rising as more families turn to caveats to halt grants, and fr...

🕰️ When did you last review your estate plans?

With Inheritance Tax thresholds frozen until 2030, and unused pension funds due to be brought into scope from 6 April 2027, now is a good time for many families to take another look.
