Do I need a Will if I want to leave everything to my spouse?

Welcome to the May 2026 edition of the Mander Hadley newswire, designed to keep you updated with our firm and the wider legal market.

In this edition, we discuss how employers can avoid holiday pay disputes and the benefits of collaborative family law.

We break down what searches residential property buyers need to be aware of and whether you need a Will if you want to leave everything to your spouse.

Finally, our dispute resolution team explain what you can do if you are being unlawfully evicted by your landlord and how the Renters' Rights Act offers you greater protection for this.

Mander Hadley is a well-established law firm in Coventry and Warwickshire, with an enviable reputation. Whilst we are proud of our heritage, we are also a vibrant, forward-thinking firm, committed to innovation. Please see our brochure or click on the above tabs to read all about our services.
