Excellent comparison site for legal services. Received 4 quotes immediately and all very competitively priced compared to my local borough legal services. Went with one of the quotations and although service not completed as of yet, so far the service has been faultless and very informative throughout the process. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for competitively priced legal services.

How to make a will
Making a will is a lot simpler than it seems. Start by choosing your solicitor or will writer to guide you through the process.
Consider your assets and who you want them to go to and pick an executor, someone you trust to ensure your wishes are carried out.
Your solicitor or will writer ensure that your will is legally valid and signed correctly by you and your witness. Remember to update your will if you have any change in circumstances.
Make a Will
Writing a will is also known as drafting a will or choosing a will writing service. Whether you're looking for a joint will or individual will, we can help you get quotes from up to four solicitors and will writers.
Contest a Will
Contesting a will means legally arguing against an existing will. If you believe a family member's will is not valid, was made under duress or when they were not fit to sign it, you can contest it in court.
Frequently asked questions
Who makes my will?
You can hire a solicitor or a will writer to make your will for you. These are both legal professionals able to make sure your will is legally valid. There are pros and cons to both solicitors or will writers.
Some people consider a DIY will, where they fill out the paperwork for themselves. Whilst it is possible to do this for very simplistic wills, we would advise caution.
How much does it cost to make a will?
The price of your will depends on how complex it is. A simple will may cost around £150, whereas a more complex will can cost around £400. Similarly, if you want to draft a joint will with your spouse, this can come out at around £400-£600.
Do I need to update my will?
Life moves on, things change - it's natural to want to update your will. If it's a small change, your solicitor or will writer can create a 'codicil' which is like an attached note to your original will.
If there have been big changes since the last time you wrote your will - getting a new will written is probably the best option.
What happens if I die without writing a will?
Making a will is the best way to protect your family. But what happens if you never get around to it?
When you don't have a will, your estate will be allocated according to the laws of intestacy, meaning that the state will decide who inherits. If you don't want to leave anything to chance, it's important to make a will.
How do I contest a will?
Contesting a will often comes down to whether you believe the will was unreasonably altered. This can depend on whether the person was tricked or coerced into changing their will, or if you believe they were not of sound mind when they changed it.
Whilst it's never pleasant to disagree during a time of loss, if you believe that a loved one's will has been altered unfairly, it is worth speaking to a legal professional to see what can be done.
