Sarah Bogard, Partner at Furley Page Solicitors tells Expatsradio about the basics of wills in this expats radio programme. It is the first in a series of three which we shall be running over the coming month including a couple of case histories.
These are the questions Sarah answers for us in the interview.
1. Do France and the UK have the same laws for the distribution of an estate on death?
2. Those owning assets in France may be most concerned about how their house will pass. Will it be any different for other assets, such as savings and bank accounts?
3. Will I need to make a Will?
4. Do I need a French Will or an English Will?
5. Does a French Will follow the same format as an English Will?
6. What else do I need to think about when making a Will?
