Wills and Probate Solicitors in Haslemere

Marriage or civil partnership normally cancels any will made before it, unless the will was written with that marriage in mind. Someone who remarries without making a new will can therefore die intestate, leaving much of the estate to the new spouse and less to children from an earlier relationship than intended. A fresh will, sometimes with a life interest trust over the family home, can protect both sides of a blended family. Haslemere is a market town in the Borough of Waverley in south-west Surrey, close to where Surrey, Hampshire and West Sussex meet. It holds a 13th-century market charter and has a strong Arts and Crafts heritage. Wills and probate solicitors in Haslemere can check whether a will survived a later marriage, apply for the right grant and deal with any claim from relatives left short. They also value the estate, settle the inheritance tax and distribute what remains. Firms in GU27 serve the town, with another in Alton.
