Trusts in Wills

Trusts in Wills

Many Wills may have a Trust written into them but there is often confusion surrounding the reasons why it has been included and what it means.

It is important to remember that although the Trust in the Will is treated as coming into effect when a person dies, there may be some decisions for the named Trustees to make and it may be necessary for legal documents to be drafted to set up the Trust appropriately.

A Trust that is contained in a Will comes into effect when the Executors who have administered the estate transfer the assets (such as money or land) into the hands of Trustees. The Trustees are the legal owners of these assets but are not entitled to any benefits of the Trust, unless they are named as a beneficiary themselves. The Trustees are obliged to hold and manage the property for the benefit of a person or a group of people, who are called beneficiaries.

Trustees who are named in a Will have the option to take up their role or they can choose to retire their duty as Trustee if they so wish.  The power of appointing a new Trustee lies with them, in most instances. For Trusts involving land, at least two Trustees must be appointed.

There are several types of Trusts but the most commonly used include Trusts for minors and Discretionary Trusts.

Kate’s financial worries demonstrate the need for LPA

Posted on by

TV personality Kate Garraway’s publicized financial worries, due to her husband currently being in a coma in hospital due to the coronavirus, is a timely reminder of the importance of Lasting Power of Attorneys (LPAs).

Kate’s husband Derek was diagnosed with coronavirus back in March. Although he is now testing negative for the illness he is still in hospital battling against the virus’ aftermath.

This has left Kate alone, to parent their two children and to deal with the household finances and insurance policies. The latter which she is struggling with, due to Derek being the named person on the bills and different policies.

Kate spoke very open and honestly about her financial worries, on Good Morning Britain.

She said:

“One of the practical problems – which a lot of people would’ve experienced if they’ve got the absence of someone in their life – like many thing the car is entirely in Derek’s name, the insurance is in Derek’s name, a lot of our bank accounts.

“There are a lot of financial going that I’ve talked to you both about going on, which is making life very complicated because I can’t get access to things.”

She added:

“Because legally I haven’t got power of attorney. And all this other stuff that goes on when you’re dealing with a situation where someone’s been sick for a long time.”

Whilst people have been using the time in lockdown to get their affairs in order by creating Wills, it’s also beneficial to talk to your clients about the benefits of an LPA.

Kate Garraway’s situation clearly demonstrates the importance of an LPA, and may break the taboo around them only being needed for elderly or vulnerable relatives.

The ongoing trend of leaving a digital legacy

The ongoing trend of leaving a digital legacy

The ongoing trend of leaving a digital legacy
By the end of this century, the number of dead people on the popular social media network, Facebook, is expected to outnumber living members – turning it into the world’s biggest ‘virtual graveyard’.

Additionally, a recent YouGov survey revealed that 26% of people would like the content of their social media accounts to pass to their loved ones once they have died. The survey showed that 67% of respondents wanted their social media accounts taken offline after their death and only 7% wanted them to remain online.

Due to the strong interest in social media and our ‘online life’, the trend of people looking to leave farewell messages to their loved ones via various social networks or online platforms is becoming more common.

Digital legacies can cause issues linked to privacy rules and data protection regulations, highlighting the question of who ‘owns’ your virtual life. Online assets are being viewed as an increasingly important subject and many people are now including clauses about them in their Wills. It is not clear what happens to data collected during a lifetime after someone passes away, which could potentially cause upset to family members if there is any uncertainty.

It is important to discuss your wishes regarding your online accounts with your Executor so that your final wishes are carried out, regardless of your intentions.

Contact us today for more information on digital legacies.

COVID-19 impacts probate applications in the UK

COVID-19 impacts probate applications in the UK

In June, it was widely reported that HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS) had been receiving a surge in probate applications. The Government tried to manage the surge in demand by hiring additional staff and upskilling existing staff to clear the backlog which resulted in average turnaround times of five to six weeks.
In a recent interview, Stephen Burgess from HMCTS provided reassurance that measures are in place to progress applications at an improved pace. “We have put significant extra resources into the probate service to prepare for any increases in levels of receipts,” Burgess said.
With the average probate application submitted 3 months after registration of a death, HMCTS is still anticipating a peak in applications from 5,000 per week to 9,000 due to the pandemic, but say they are prepared for the increased impending workload.
Probate registries have been under scrutiny for many months due to processing delays. The delays originally began after the rollout of a new IT case management system in spring 2019 which dramatically slowed down processing applications.
Despite HMCTS claims that applications are being processed promptly, some Executors, Administrators and estate administration providers are still reporting longer waits for Grants to be issued in some cases.

All our Wills are individually drafted by specialist  Legal Will Executives. We do not use fill-in-the-blanks templates. Your Will expresses your own wishes and our professionals can advise you on ways to reduce the burden of inheritance tax.

Your Wishes

A will stands as the legal, written record of your wishes after your death. It is a legally binding document explaining how you wish to be buried, and how you would like to distribute your Estate. It’s gives you complete peace of mind knowing that your loved ones are taken care of, as you want.

Don’t Fall Prey To Intestacy 

Without a will, your estate is divided according to the rules of intestacy, and your wishes may not be carried out by the person who inherits – especially if you have step-children, who get nothing if you die without a will, and have no say in your burial or your estate under the law of intestacy.

Video Will witnessing to be made legal in England and Wales

Video Will witnessing to be made legal in England and Wales

As of September 2020, the Wills Act 1837 will be amended to allow the two Will witnesses to be virtually or physically present.
This is a very welcomed announcement due to the challenges placed by those trying to plan for their future during the COVID-19 pandemic. With shielding, isolation and social distancing measures in place nationally since March 2020, those making a Will (testators) and their witnesses were unable to adhere to the existing Will laws and guidelines.
The existing law states that Wills must be made in the presence of two witnesses so that each has a clear line of sight to each signature made. Historically, this has always meant that there must be a physical ‘presence’ among all parties. Questions were raised early in the pandemic about the likelihood of a Will witnessed remotely being legally accepted however, until now, there was no official flexibility from the Ministry of Justice on the matter.
The amended law will allow Wills created between 31 January 2020 and 31 January 2022 to be recognised if it was witnessed using video technology. During the pandemic, some testators took the risk of creating a Will via video and this amendment to the law will provide peace of mind to those individuals that their last wishes will still be respected during these exceptional times.

So, what has changed?

While the process has remained relatively similar to the existing law, other than the new option to witness signatures virtually, the Ministry of Justice has provided four steps to help with clarity and consistency:
Step 1: The testator and all witnesses must have a clear view of all actions that they each make on video. For instance, the camera needs to be positioned in a way that allows for a clear line of sight of the paper being signed and not just the head and shoulders of the testator/witnesses. It is also crucial that the sound and visual quality are clear.
Step 2: Each witness must confirm that they acknowledge their role as a witness of the testator’s Will.
Step 3: Electronic signatures will not be acceptable so the original Will must be taken to each witness for signature within 24 hours or as soon as possible after the process has commenced.
Step 4: Each witness must follow step 1 using the same video technology if they are not in the same physical location as each other. Both witnesses must sign the Will before it is considered valid.

Ministers have reinforced the fact that witnessing via video should only be done as a last resort when meeting in person is either impossible or unsafe. They also remind Will makers that all signing must take place in real-time as using a pre-recorded video at any point will invalidate the process.

Should there be further developments on this topic, we will be sure to provide necessary updates.
