Using the guide

Arken offers an Interactive Intestacy Guide. This guide outlines what happens to a client's estate if they die without a Will.

To use the guide:

1. Select the ''Check Instestacy Position" option from the left menu on the Dashboard.


2. Complete the Intestacy Questionnaire by answering each question on your client's behalf.

As you answer the initial questions the remaining questions will be revealed.

Once the questionnaire has been completed the resulting advice, given in the 'Advice' tab on the right hand document pane will change. This advice tab will describe what happens if your client dies without a valid Will.

What do the other tabs do?

The other tabs on the right-hand pane:

  • The 'Advantages' tab - outlines the benefits of creating a Will.
  • The 'About' tab - outlines what Intestacy is.

How would I use this section

We recommend that you use the Intestacy Guide to give your client accurate advice on what might happen if they die without a Will.

Please also note, that the final report cannot be downloaded, as it is to be used primarily as a sales tool.
