Assets in a step family

[Camille Bamfield]

my husband and I have no joint will and have been married 9 years.
I am not on the title of our house and am not listed as a Director of his company. If something happened to me how can I ensure that my children retain my share of our assets?

You are not required to have a joint will.
You can make your own will.

As to beneficiary children, it's quite common these days
to have kids that are "hers but not his", or "his but not hers",
and it is possible to prepare wills to suit.

Make an appointment in your own time to see a solicitor,
who will assist you to make your own
There will be fees payable for this.
It does not have to be the same solicitor as your husband.
Avoid DIY Will Kits like the plague.

I think you can ask a legal expert in Family Law to help you up in your problem.
