Do I need a will?

[frogbollock]

I'm living with my dp and have two dcs aged 9 and 6. DP has an older child who stays with us every other weekend.

Am I right in thinking that if either of us dies, the other inherits the house and all the other assets because we're common law h&w?

Should dp make a will so his daughter gets a share?

Marlow Wills is doing our wills at the moment, she's really helpful and not expensive. www.marlowwills.co.uk. She doesn't seem to be on Mumsnet any more.
