Wills & Trusts
Whether you would like a will prepared or set up a trust, our solicitors can help. We offer highly competitive rates and you should not hesitate to contact us should you wish to discuss your requirements informally.
If a person passes away without a valid will they will be considered to have died ‘intestate’ and their estate will be dealt with in accordance with the rules of intestacy, which can leave their loved ones without the provision that the deceased would have wished for them. Having a valid will ensures that a person’s wishes are respected after they pass away. We can draft your will and advise as to estate planning to help ensure you leave a tax-efficient legacy.
We have seen many cases of unscrupulous will writers persuading vulnerable clients to sign unreasonable agreements, often including the completely inappropriate appointment of the will writers themselves as professional trustees, who then look to charge the estate with excessive and unnecessary fees. We have also seen extortionate charges being made for storage of the Will or for completely unnecessary packages which cost thousands, but in reality offer no real benefit. If you have been persuaded to enter into such an agreement, please contact us. We have acted for a number of clients who have successfully recovered the thousands of pounds they have been unnecessarily charged by unethical will writers.
