Remarriage

Mr B & Ms C had both been married before. The had decided that they would both reside
in Ms C’s property, that she had owned outright, since being Widowed. Both Mr & Ms C
wanted to ensure that if Ms C predeceased her new Husband, then the Property
must be passed to her 3 Children, However they were concerned that Mr B could
be made homeless if this was to happen

Recommendation

Clients should both have single Will’s appointing each other as their
executors, expressing how they would like their individual assets to be distributed
if either should die. Ms C’s Property is to be distributed separately (via the Will), by
placing the Property into an ‘Interest in Possession Trust’. This enables Ms C to
give the Property to her Children, allowing Mr B a ‘right to Occupy’ the Property
for a period of time that they feel appropriate (client chose a period of
5 years for Mr B to live in the Property).

Result

Both clients have well drafted Will’s that will enable the safe passage of
their estate’s to their nominated beneficiaries. Each client has no
concern about the ‘Laws of Intestacy’, & the documents will speed up
and simplify Probate. Ms C is reassured that her Property is safe, and will
pass to her Children, without any quibble, whilst giving both clients the security
that they will both (together or individually) be able to reside in the home.
