Did you know… there is an automatic revocation of existing wills upon marriage / civil partnership? This automatically revokes a will made prior to the date of your big day and the will becomes completely invalid!

Jefferies is pleased to advise that in November 2017, the government sought to change the law by a simple method of what is called a remedial order to allow single parents, as well as couples, to apply for Parental Orders if they have a child through surrogacy.
The rules will be retrospective so that single parents with existing children can apply, but they will only have a six-month window when the law changes to do so.
