There are lots of good reasons for making a will:
- You can decide how your assets are shared out – if you don’t make a will, the law says who gets what;
- If you aren’t married or in a civil partnership (whether or not it’s a same sex relationship) your partner will not inherit automatically – with a will you can make sure your partner is provided for;
- You can make sure that no more Inheritance Tax needs be paid than is necessary
Most of all you can ensure that your assets are left to the people who you care for.
We are different from most online will providers as we do not use an automated computer system where you simply fill in a form and we are real people available to talk to too explain any complicated jargon and answer any questions you may have. DIY wills may not properly take account of all your requirements. Furthermore, you should be aware that unless the will is properly signed and witnessed, it may not be legally valid.
All our wills are drafted by Howards Solicitors and will be created as a tailor made legal document to exactly suit your needs and requirements. Get a single person will from £99 plus vat and a joint will from £149 plus vat.
We are also able to safely store your will for you so you never have to worry about it getting lost or damaged. Will storage comes at a fixed cost of £15 plus vat per year.
Often, when a person decides to make a Will he/she will be focusing on the provisions for loved ones who may be left behind. It may be appropriate to refer a client at this time to a financial advisor.
