Minor amendment to an existing Will.
To include younger family members, grandkids & great grandkids. Financial gifts to come out of the inheritance left to a major beneficiary, which isn’t a problem.
I could be wrong, but I don’t think a solicitor, or their clerk, needs to be involved. Download a Will Codicil Template and complete it, and keep with the existing Will.
I think if said ‘beneficiary ‘ were to give out the (same value) financial gifts to new beneficiaries post Probate, without a Will amendment, there could be financial implications viz annual gifts limit, if they were tax payers.
Personally I’ve used a Codicil template with my will to amend names of charitable bodies benefitting from my demise. Didn’t involve any paid legal work....
Any thoughts please
