[QUOTE="flowerpot, post: 7323403, member: 142783"] We asked our accountant which solicitor they thought was good for agricultural matters, which happened to the one we use anyway, and they have a specialist section. Don't leave your wife without anything, just relying on the good nature of the children! I'm pretty much sure you can't do that, you have to make provision, or it could mean a challenge and very bad feelings. (Locally a farmer married as his second wife the lady who had been his housekeeper, he died and he had left her some money, he probably thought it was "sufficient" but she didn't think so having been Mrs X living in a nice farmhouse, so it ended by the son having to sell the farmhouse and some land to pay her out after a court case, so expensive and bad feelings all round.)
