The importance of making a will cannot be underestimated – it gives you control and makes sure that your wishes concerning what happens to your money, property and possessions after you die are put in place. Without a will this is not guaranteed, and the law ultimately decides what happens to your estate – potentially causing problems for your family and those left dealing with your affairs.

How we can help

We have a dedicated team of experienced, professional and approachable experts who can help you make a will. We offer friendly and bespoke advice and are able to meet you at any of our offices or, if it is more convenient for you, at your home or any other location at a time that is suitable for you.

  • The appointment of a guardian(s) to care for any children you have that are under the age of 18;
  • Ensuring that your partner will be provided for (whether or not you are married or in a civil partnership);
  • Protecting the interests of your children from a previous relationship;
  • Putting restrictions and limitations on any gifts that you make;
