The benefits of using local solicitors for writing your will

There are a number of benefits of using local solicitors for writing your will, particularly if youā€™re looking for a personalised and cost-effective service.

We offer a local will writing service through all of our offices in Devon and Somerset which you will find located in Barnstaple, Bideford, South Molton, Braunton, Exeter, Tiverton, and Taunton.

Here are some of the main advantages of using local solicitors for writing your will.

1. Personalised Service

ā€¢ Face-to-face interaction: Meeting with one of our local will writers allows for a more personal touch. You can explain your circumstances in detail, and they can offer legal advice that is directly tailored to your specific needs.

ā€¢ Clear communication: Itā€™s easier to communicate complex issues, ask questions, and ensure you fully understand the process when you meet in person.

ā€¢ Execution: We can personally oversee the execution (signing) of your will so that it complies with the law and is legally valid.

2. Convenience

ā€¢ Home visits: We offer the convenience of home visits, allowing you to handle the process from the comfort of your own home.

ā€¢ Multiple offices: We have seven local offices in Barnstaple, Bideford, South Molton, Braunton, Exeter, Tiverton, and Taunton.

3. Specialisation

ā€¢ Specialised knowledge: Our Wills, Trusts and Probate team specialises in wills, estate planning, and powers of attorney, which means they have specific expertise in these areas.

4. Peace of Mind

ā€¢ Qualified solicitors: We are a firm of solicitors, regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), and have been providing legal services locally for over 100 years. Not all companies offering will writing services are solicitors or hold any formal legal qualifications. Many ‘will writers’ are not even regulated. By dealing with local solicitors who you can trust, you know that your affairs are in safe hands.

5. Expert Service

ā€¢ If your estate is complex, involving international assets or significant inheritance tax planning for instance, then we have the expertise to deal with it.

6. Transparent Pricing

ā€¢ Our pricing is totally transparent. Read about the cost of making a standard will here, or if your affairs are more complex then contact us for a fixed fee quote.

Our lawyers are always happy to have an initial chat with you free of charge to discuss your requirements, and provide you with written confirmation of our fees. Give usĀ a call on freephone 0333 888 0404 or email us atĀ [email protected].
