Severance of Tenancy

Most couples own property as “joint tenants.” This means the survivor inherits everything automatically, which might not always be the best option.

We’re updating our website to better serve. Until then, we’re only a phone call or email away to assist with your legacy planning journey

With a Will you can:

Protect your loved ones and make your wishes clear
 

  • Decide who inherits your estate, and who to exclude.

  • Appoint executors and guardians for your children.

  • Specify funeral wishes.

  • Delay children inheriting until they’re old enough to manage it responsibly.

  • Ensure treasured possessions go to the right people.

We offer professional guidance delivered with calm heads, so you can feel reassured, supported, and in control.

More control
over your property

Severance of Tenancy allows you to own as “tenants in common,” meaning you can leave your share to someone else in your Will.

This approach can:

​

  • Protect your children’s inheritance.

  • Allow different ownership shares.

  • Help mitigate care fees.

 

The process is straightforward and registered with the Land Registry. It’s a small step that can give you significant control over your estate planning.
