Your Will distributes your assets and appoints personal representatives (or ‘executors’) to administer your estate. The top line? It’s the only way to ensure that your wishes are carried out. And the bottom line? You’ve got to have one. It will make probate so much simpler for the people you leave behind.
The alternative (where no Will has been written) is called ‘intestacy’. This is where the government steps in and distributes all your assets (by default) to your children, spouse, civil partner, or certain blood relatives. And if you don’t have any relatives, the Crown will take everything.
There can also be severe consequences for your children if you don’t have a Will. The courts could put them in temporary care while they decide who their guardian should be.
Our Will writing service will put these worries to bed for a fixed fee agreed in advance. We will discuss your position, give expert guidance, and then write the actual Will on your behalf.

Planning your estate involves calculating its value and then putting legal documents in place to transfer your money, property and other assets when you’re gone.
Writing a Will is a big part of this process. However, you can also form Trusts to protect your assets and make them tax-efficient. Trusts, which are managed by ’Trustees’ appointed by you, separate the legal and beneficial ownership so that your assets are protected.

Plans who benefits
Saves inheritance tax
Protects your assets for loved ones
It’s not nice to think about, but you might need someone to make decisions on your behalf if you become ill or incapacitated one day. A lasting power of attorney (LPA) is a legal document that nominates this person. Otherwise a government body called the Office of Public Guardian (OPG) will step in and control your affairs.
Appointing your ‘attorney’ is an important choice. They will control everything relating so your health, welfare, property and finances, so always choose someone you know and trust implicitly.
We can help you choose this person and set up all aspects of LPA so your best interests are looked after.
Protects your health and welfare
Safeguards your property and financial affairs
Puts someone you know and trust in control
Registers relevant documents at the OPG
Nobody knows what’s round the corner. But everyone knows it’s smart to plan ahead.
