Expert Will Writing, Estate Planning & Legal Support Across the UK

Wills

We provide in-depth, personalised Will writing services that take your full situation into account. Your Will is drafted by a qualified lawyer and financial planner who will ensure all legal requirements are met while helping you consider your long-term goals.

Why have a Will?
Dying without a Will (intestate) leaves your estate to be divided by the government under the rules of intestacy, which may not reflect your wishes. Making a Will allows you to remain in control of how and to whom your assets are distributed.

Four good reasons to have a Will:

• If you have children under 18, a Will allows you to appoint legal guardians of your choice.
• An unmarried partner is not entitled to your estate unless named in a Will.
• A Will can help reduce the inheritance tax payable on your estate.
• It ensures your estate is distributed exactly as you wish.

Types of Wills and Our Fees:

• Single Will – £109.00
• Mirror Will – £245.00

How it works:
We start with a free consultation (via phone, email, or live chat), followed by a basic fact-finding meeting. If you proceed, a thorough review is conducted in a follow-up session, where we gather all necessary information to tailor your Will to your specific needs. Your Will is prepared and posted within 10 working days, or sooner for urgent cases (at an extra cost). We then supervise the signing process to ensure legal validity.

Updating and Storage:
Wills should be updated when:

• You acquire new assets or make changes to existing ones
• Your family circumstances change (births, deaths, marriage, divorce)
• You enter a new relationship

We offer secure Will storage for an annual fee and update services when needed.

Things to consider when writing a Will:
Even small mistakes can render a Will invalid. We ensure:

• You meet the legal age and mental capacity requirements
• The Will is properly signed and witnessed
• All formalities are followed to prevent challenges during probate

Revoking or altering a Will:

• A new valid Will revokes an earlier one
• Marriage or civil partnership revokes a Will unless made in contemplation of the marriage
• Wills can be revoked by destruction, with intent
• Alterations must be properly signed and witnessed

What properties can and cannot be transferred under a Will:
Some assets cannot be passed on via a Will, including:

• Joint tenancy property (automatically goes to surviving owner)
• Nominated funds (up to £5,000 designated directly to a nominee)
• Life insurance policies held in trust for named beneficiaries
