Making a Will is the only way to ensure your property, assets, and loved ones are protected after you’re gone. Yet, nearly 6 in 10 adults do not have a valid Will in place. Without one, the law decides who inherits your estate – and this might mean family, friends, or charities you care about receive nothing.
Planning ahead with expert Wills solicitors ensures your wishes are respected and your loved ones are protected. Our dedicated Wills solicitors provide clear, personalised advice to help you create a legally sound Will that reflects your unique circumstances, giving you peace of mind for the future.

Why making a Will matters
Writing a Will is an essential part of estate planning, and unless you have a poorly executed Will that confuses matters, it will always be more beneficial to have one than not. Some of the most common circumstances that a Will helps with include:
- If you’re not married but in a long-term relationship, the law does not automatically recognise your partner’s rights. Without a Will, they could be left with nothing.
- If you have children or dependents who need care, a Will ensures someone you trust looks after them and provides for their future.
- If your estate involves overseas property, a business, or blended family circumstances, a Will allows you to clearly set out your wishes and avoid confusion or disputes.
If you’re unsure whether you need a Will, or you need help with wider estate planning matters, speak to our Will solicitors for a free, no-obligation 30-minute consultation.
How much does it cost to write a Will?
One of the main reasons that people put off their Will is the perceived cost of writing a Will. But it may actually be much more affordable than you think.
We keep the costs for our Wills straightforward, with a fixed rate depending on whether you’d like a single Will, or a joint Will:
- Single Will: £190 (+VAT)
- Joint Will: £360 (+VAT)
This fee includes lifetime storage of your Will in our safe storage system and registration of your Will with the Certainty UK National Will Register.
The exact cost of writing your Will may be affected by other factors, such as how complex your estate is and the kind of considerations you’re looking to include. If you’d like to create a protective Trust alongside your Will, for example, this may incur further costs – but our solicitors can walk you through this as part of your initial consultation.
