No matter your age or assets, having a will is essential. JBWere – The Bequest Report 2025 found that only 55% of New Zealand adults have a last will and testament! Under the Administration Act 1969, this means that for 45% of the population dying without a will means: • assets are distributed by a fixed statutory formula, • partners and children may not receive what the deceased intended, • blended families are particularly vulnerable, • estates often take longer and cost more to administer. Many New Zealanders believe: • they are too young or don’t have enough assets, • wills are expensive, • lawyers are required, • the process is legally complex.
