The Law Society has issued a statement concerning a Digital Legacy, in which it urges people to leave clear instructions about what should happen to their social media, digital photographs, computer games and on-line bank accounts after their death.
Having a list of all your online accounts, such as email, banking, investments and social networking sites will make it easier for family members to piece together your Digital Legacy, adhere to your wishes and could save time and money. Not making your Digital Legacy clear could mean important or sentimental material – such as photographs on social networks – is never recovered.
If you want to find out more information on this subject, or to make a Will that makes provisions for your Digital Legacy, please contact our Private Client Team by calling 020 891 6141 or e-mail p.lawson@srb.co.uk
