Next of Kin - All Questions
Q.
Who can I name as my next of kin?
A.
You can name anyone you like as your next of kin, whether you are living together or not. If you have written down who your next of kin is, in a will or other document, it will be clear who should make decisions on your behalf if that is ever necessary.
If you have not made your wishes clear in writing, a close relative or a wife, husband, orcivil partner, may be regrded as your next of kin, rather than the person who is your live-in partner.
