It would be wise to set yourself an annual reminder to consider whether it is necessary to update your will. Users of Quickwill's subscription service will receive this reminder annually via email. You should consider updating your will when there has been a change to your family structure or the assets you own. Amongst other reasons, this could include: getting married/divorced, the birth of a child, the death of a family member/friend, or buying/selling a house/car etc.
