Will - advice

weird seeing this post as I’ve only just had an email with my revised will.
Wife passed away 6 year ago and I’ve since Remarried and of course that’s where the complications came in having an only child .
 
Why don’t you leave whoever dies first in trust to kids, my mum and dad did this in the event that if the survivor ends up in a home they can’t take all the assets to pay the bill as half belongs to the kids in trust.
Because I object to people trying to cheat the system. I’ve had a lot out it and if necessary I’ll pay back.
Besides if I go in a home I want to have the brass to buy better than a shitty council owned one.
I also don’t trust trusts.
What happens if your Mrs divorces you and wants her share of the trust now?
I know a family that’s happening to right now, having thought their trust was safe they are now being told by a very top, very expensive solicitor it probably isn’t.

I assume you mean changing your mother’s will? And that it was a mirror will of your dad’s?

It would be wise to review it to make sure it still reflects your mum’s wishes and is up to date re family circumstance.

A straightforward will need cost very little if a new one is required as long as you beware of rapacious solicitors. Choose a company with competitive pricing and excellent user reviews.

Problem... Apparently complex legal matter that has potentially significant impact on family's financial circumstances.

Solution... Seek free advice on Bluemoon.

Not saying that no-one on here would be able to help, but there are occasions when you need to spend a few quid to get proper legal advice. This is one of them.

I think people post on here as BM is full of posters who know everything about every topic, from Middle East politics to types of bread roll to how submersibles work

Why are they cheating the system, it’s perfectly legal and also my parents have paid into the system that they should be getting the care, not having to use their life savings to do so! I doubt someone in their 70s are going to get divorced as well. I would think that if it’s a top expensive solicitor it may well involve significant amounts of money. If you divorce then the wife is entitled to half, I’m talking about once someone dies, the survivo still has their half, the other with the kids.
 
Whatever.
I’m sure it is perfectly legal. Doesn’t make ethical or morally right.I consider it cheating and incredibly selfish that some people think everyone else’s taxes should pay for their parents’ care so they can inherit a wad.
Each to his own.

I have had better advice via bluemoon than any other place I've asked for it at times.
