  Wills - some basics...  

  • Not all Wills are the same. Your Will(s) should reflect your personal circumstances and what you want the Will(s) to do.

    • To make sure your Wills reflect your full intentions you need professional advice.
       

  • We provide a comprehensive personal service to make sure your Will(s) do what you want and need:

    • We can meet with you at home if practical or online with a Zoom video call.

    • You'll get advice and explanations - it's important you understand everything​
       

  • Dying without a Will is called 'dying intestate'. Who inherits what is governed by the Laws of Intestacy, most of which were established in 1925. You have no choice.

    • Information about Intestacy can be found HERE

  • There is no such thing as a 'common law husband/wife'.

    • Unless you are married or in a legal civil partnership there is no legal right to inherit.

    • Co-habiting partners can make Wills in favour of each other. 

    • Tax-free inter-spousal transfers do not apply
       

  • We can provide secure storage of your Wills

    • Any marks on or damage to a Will can render it invalid. It's better to keep just a copy at home​.

    • Storage is in a fully managed, professionally converted WW2 bunker protected against flood, fire and other risks.
       

  • Yes, you can make a do-it-yourself Will, buy a paper form or do it online for £100 or less - but beware - you get what you pay for.​

    • If it isn't exactly right you'll be storing up problems for your family.​
