How to write a Will
A will is a legal document that states what you want to happen to your money, possessions and assets after you die. It’s important to have a Will, so that your wishes are clear and can be carried out on your behalf. Making a Will is usually simple and inexpensive, and there are many ways you can go about it.
Using a Will writing service is one of the simplest ways to set up your Will. After asking you a series of questions, the provider will help ensure your wishes are clearly written out before sending it to you to be signed, witnessed and made legally binding – all from the comfort of your own home.
