Is it time to review your Will?

You should consider making or reviewing a Will if:

you do not currently have one;
you have married, entered a civil partnership, separated or divorced;
you have had a child or want to appoint guardians;
you have bought a home or your financial circumstances have changed;
you live with a partner but are not married or in a civil partnership;
you want to provide for a dependant or vulnerable beneficiary;
you own a business or assets outside the UK; or
your current Will no longer reflects your wishes.

Depending on your circumstances, we can advise on:

a new individual Will;

the effect of jointly owned property;

when specialist tax, trust or cross-border advice may also be required.

How making a Will works

Initial discussion: We ask about your family, assets, existing documents and wishes.
Advice and quotation: We explain the recommended scope, likely cost and any issues requiring separate advice.
Drafting: We prepare the document and answer questions about the wording.
Signing: We explain how the Will must be executed for it to be valid.
Reviews: We explain when the Will should be reviewed and any storage arrangements that apply.

Why obtain legal advice when making a Will?

Online templates cannot always identify problems involving family relationships, ownership of property, dependants, foreign assets or the effect of marriage and divorce. A solicitor can ask questions about those circumstances, explain the consequences of your instructions and ensure that the signing requirements are clear.

Questions about making a Will

How much does a solicitor-drafted Will cost?

The cost depends on the complexity of your circumstances and the advice required. We will confirm the scope, VAT and any additional work before you instruct us.

Does marriage or divorce affect my Will?

Marriage or civil partnership can revoke an existing Will unless it was made in contemplation of that specific marriage or partnership. Divorce or dissolution can affect provisions concerning a former spouse or civil partner. Obtain advice about your own document rather than relying on a general summary.
