Services
Will Writing
Our will-writing service ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes while minimising inheritance tax liabilities. We provide home visits and video consultations for client convenience. Our legal team drafts bespoke documents that comply with current legislation, covering executor appointments, beneficiary designations, and guardianship arrangements for minors.
Trust Creation
Trust services protect assets for vulnerable beneficiaries and prevent sideways disinheritance. We specialise in life interest trusts, discretionary trusts, and property protection trusts. These legal structures safeguard inheritances from care home fees, divorce settlements, and financial mismanagement while maintaining beneficiary access according to your specified terms.
Lasting Power of Attorney
We create legally binding documents appointing attorneys to manage financial affairs and healthcare decisions. Our service includes registration with the Office of the Public Guardian. Clients can establish single or combined property and welfare LPAs to ensure trusted representation during mental incapacity.
Probate Services
Our probate support guides executors through estate administration, including grant of probate applications and asset distribution. Lifetime service members receive discounted rates and practical assistance with tax returns, debt settlement, and property transfers to streamline post-death estate management.
Lifetime Services
Three-tier membership plans offer document storage, free will updates, and executor support. Essential, Classic, and Premier packages provide escalating benefits including estate administration options and family discounts on additional legal services to maintain up-to-date estate planning throughout life changes.
Questions
What are the costs for making a Will?
Single wills cost £150 and mirror wills for couples cost £250, including home visits and legal drafting. Trusts and LPAs have additional charges from £399.
What can I include in my Will?
You can specify asset distribution, appoint executors and guardians, establish trusts, and outline funeral wishes. Joint assets require coordinated provisions.
Should I use a solicitor or WSL for my Will?
WSL specialists offer home visits, plain English explanations, and fixed pricing, unlike many solicitors who use legal jargon and charge hourly rates.
Can I update my Will without a home visit?
Lifetime service members receive free updates. Others can use video consultations for amendments at the same rate as new wills.
What happens if I don't have a Will?
Your estate will be distributed according to intestacy laws, potentially excluding partners, children from previous relationships, and charities you wish to benefit.
How do Trusts protect my assets?
Trusts prevent direct inheritance by beneficiaries, protecting assets from care home fees, divorce settlements, and financial mismanagement through trustee management.
