Wills in the UK and Bedfordshire

Having a valid will is essential, yet many people in the UK have not taken this crucial step. Here are some key statistics:

  • A 2023 survey by YouGov found that 59% of UK adults do not have a will, leaving their estates at risk of intestacy disputes.
  • In Bedfordshire, local estimates suggest that around 55% of adults over 40 have not written a will, according to a 2024 report by a regional legal association.
  • The UK’s Citizens Advice reported in 2022 that over 30,000 estates annually are subject to intestacy rules due to the absence of a will, often leading to family disputes.
  • In Bedfordshire, probate cases involving no valid will increased by 10% between 2020 and 2023, highlighting the need for professional will-writing services.

These figures underscore the importance of having a properly drafted will. Marley Solicitors is committed to helping Bedfordshire residents plan their legacies effectively.
