MAKING WILLS ONLINE - SPECIALIST SOLICITORS
Since the advent of the internet several companies have come into existence claiming to be able to make wills online very quickly and easily. While it seems like a good deal it can create a problem, since there is no guarantee that these companies can provide the level of knowledge and reliability that you need. In truth, the only person who can usually ensure that your will is put together properly as the law will see it is a professionally qualified solicitor who is experienced in such matters and more to the point, he's insured if it all goes wrong.
It’s true that there are now many solicitors who offer wills online, and you can certainly start the process off in this manner, but any will service which claims to be done purely over the internet is not going to meet up with the high standards held by the legal profession. It is not always necessary to meet with a lawyer face to face, but you will certainly need to rely on the postal system and perhaps speak to your solicitor over the phone or via email to be able to get your will written properly and professionally, so that all your bases are covered.
If you seek out the services of an unqualified will writer through a website which offers wills online, you are running the risk of making one of the common mistakes that can render a will completely invalid. You should ignore this fact at your peril. Many people opt for the temptation of a will online purely because it seems cheaper than the alternative of going to a solicitor to get one written up. However it can be something of a false economy - especially if the resulting will turns out to be invalid. Mistakes can be made with even the simplest of wills, and when it comes down to it you will feel far more secure knowing that your will has been deemed to be correct by a qualified legal professional.
A solicitor can help you to understand the potential effects of who you decide to include in your will - and who you leave out. Peace of mind is what you want most of all, and a professional legal adviser will be able to inform you of what the law expects from a will, in order for your own to be valid and recognisable when the time comes.
Many people are nervous of being bombarded with legal terms and phrases they do not understand when consulting a solicitor, but this is not the case with our service. After all it is vital that you know exactly what your will should and shouldn’t include, and you need to understand every step of the process so that you can make the right decisions for you. We speak plain English with no legal jargon.
Our services are also priced very fairly; although they will vary from case to case as every will is different and needs a different amount of work according to what has to be done. It’s possible to obtain a quote before you proceed with making your will – all you need to do is call us to find out more.
