Your Will is drafted by our Legal Department and posted to your UK address* for approval within 28 days of your appointment, however during this busy period it may take slightly longer. We also provide clear guidelines on signing and witnessing.

Why do I need a Will?

We have put together a simple checklist to show you how writing a Will can help you protect those you love. If any of the following criteria applies to your circumstances, you need to put a Will in place.

I am married

Without a Will your spouse or civil partner may not automatically inherit all of your estate.

I have a partner

Without a Will the law treats you both as single and your partner would receive nothing.

I am a property owner

You should specify who you wish to inherit or live in your property after you have passed away and consider protecting your share against possible care costs.

I have children from a previous relationship

If you are now married, children from a previous relationship may inherit nothing.

I have new grandchildren

You may want to add your new grandchild to your Will so they inherit something directly from you.

I don't want the state to decide who inherits from me

Making a Will is the only way to put you in control. It allows you to name your beneficiaries and specify what you want them to inherit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a legal professional to write my Will?

No, there are many “do it yourself” or online options available and if your circumstances are straightforward these options may be suitable. However, DIY Wills do not offer much guidance or flexibility and it can be easy to make mistakes that have serious consequences for your loved ones.

Using a professional service like WSL can offer peace of mind knowing that all your wishes are recorded correctly and that your assets and loved ones are protected.

What can I include in my Will?

You can include any assets in your own name, for example savings, property or personal possessions. If you jointly own an asset such as a property, you can include this in your Will but you will both need to stipulate the same wishes. Assets such as pensions or Life Assurance policies that are written into trust are typically not included in a Will.

In your Will you can;
- appoint executors
- name beneficiaries
- appoint guardians and trustees for children under 18
- add exclusions clauses (if required)
- add Will trusts (if required)

WSL also offers Lasting Powers of Attorney and Lifetime Membership Services. Your consultant can advise on these further at your appointment.

How much does it cost to make a Will?

The cost depends on how you choose to write your Will. DIY or online Wills can start at as little as £20. The average cost of mirror Wills with a solicitor is £500, although this can vary depending on where you live, how long it takes to complete and how complex your estate is.

WSL charges fixed fees that include VAT. £145 for a single Will or £195 for a mirror Will.

These prices include your home visit or video appointment, all the advice and guidance you require, the drafting of your Wills and returning to you for signing and witnessing.

Will trusts, Lasting Powers of Attorney and Lifetime Membership services are also available but not included in the cost of the standard Will.

What’s the difference between using WSL and a solicitor?

Solicitors offer professional advice, however not many solicitors specialise in this area of law. They often use confusing legal jargon and usually only operate within typical business hours which means you might need to take time off work.

WSL are specialists. Our convenient home visit or video appointments are available 7 days a week and our experienced consultants explain everything in plain English. We offer fixed fees and Professional Indemnity Insurance up to £10million for our clients’ peace of mind.

What if I don’t want a home visit?

We understand a home visit may not be suitable for everyone. Therefore we also offer video call appointments so you can get the benefit of speaking to one of our specialists face to face without them coming to your home.

How much does it cost to change your Will?

WSL offers free Will updates to all our Lifetime Service members. If you are not a WSL Lifetime Service member, or have previously written a Will with another company, then the cost to update your Will is the same as making a new Will.
