Everything your family needs, in one place
From a straightforward will to property trusts handled with our solicitor partners — prepared by an adviser who sits with you, not a form that guesses.
Planning packs — the easiest way to be covered
Everything most families need, together, for less than buying it piece by piece.
Single Essential
Your wishes, written down properly.
Couple Essential
Both wills, done together.
Single Complete
Protection now, not only after.
Couple Complete
The complete plan for a couple.
Decide it yourself, or the law decides for you
Intestacy has a fixed order. An unmarried partner gets nothing. Stepchildren get nothing. And no one you chose is looking after your children.
Single Will
Your estate, your executors, your choice of guardian.
For anyone over 18 with something — or someone — to protect.
Mirror Wills
Two wills for a couple, prepared together.
We ask each of you separately, and say plainly what happens if the survivor remarries.
Letter of Wishes
Explain your reasons, privately.
Guidance for your executors and the personal things a will cannot carry. It stays private after probate.
Ask about thisWill registration & safe deposit
Findable when it matters.
Recorded on the National Will Register, with the option to lodge the original at the court.
Ask about this
The document families wish they had a year earlier
A will speaks when you die. An LPA speaks while you are alive but cannot — after a stroke, an accident, or as dementia takes hold. Without one, your family has to ask a court for permission to help you.
- Property & Financial Affairs — bills, accounts, pensions and your home
- Health & Welfare — care, treatment and where you live
- One-person pack — both types, one appointment
- Couple pack — all four documents, cross-appointed with replacements
The parts that make it actually work
Included in the packs, and available on their own. Your adviser will quote a fixed price for anything you need.
Executor Pack
A gift to whoever has to sort it all out.
Every account, policy, pension, subscription and funeral wish in one record, with a step-by-step guide for your executors.
Ask about thisAdvance Decision
Take the hardest decision off your children.
A legally binding record of the treatments you would refuse, sitting alongside your Health & Welfare LPA.
Ask about thisWill check & court deposit
Signed correctly, stored safely.
We check your will meets the Wills Act. Lodging the original with HM Courts & Tribunals Service is an optional add-on, not part of a planning pack: £149 (£249 for a couple), plus the court’s own £24 a will. We can do this for a will written elsewhere.
Ask about thisOngoing document care
Because life keeps moving.
A yearly reminder and review, safe storage and fixed-price updates when something changes. Marriage, for example, cancels an existing will.
Ask about thisPrint, post and signing support
No guesswork at the kitchen table.
Your documents printed, posted and explained, with a signing guide so witnessing is done correctly first time.
Ask about thisReview of an existing will
Is the will you already have still doing its job?
We check whether it still reflects your family, your property and the law — and tell you plainly if it does.
Ask about thisWhere the family home is protected — and where honesty matters most
If you own your home jointly, your will may not touch it at all. These are the conversations that protect a home, a business or a vulnerable child. They are solicitor-led, and we will tell you when you do not need them.
Severance of joint tenancy
So your share of the home follows your will.
Most couples own as joint tenants: whatever the will says, the survivor takes everything. Severance is the first step in almost all property planning.
Ask about thisDeclaration of trust
Who owns what, in writing.
For unequal deposits, help from parents, or couples who are not married and have no automatic protection.
Ask about thisProperty protection trust
Your partner keeps the home. Your children keep your share.
Written into your will for blended families and second marriages, so your half cannot drift away from your children.
Ask about thisDiscretionary will trust
For a beneficiary who needs protecting from the inheritance.
Where someone is young, vulnerable, on means-tested benefits or going through a divorce, trustees decide what they receive and when.
Ask about thisTrust registration and administration
A trust is a duty, not a document.
Most trusts must be registered with HMRC and kept up to date. We can handle the registration and the yearly admin.
Ask about thisProbate and estate administration
Support for the people left behind.
Fixed-fee help with the grant of probate and administering the estate — never a percentage of what your family inherits.
Ask about thisHow the legal side works. Preparing a will, including a trust written into a will, or a Lasting Power of Attorney is not a reserved legal activity, and our advisers handle those. Other work is reserved by the Legal Services Act 2007 to authorised people: preparing trust deeds and other deeds dealing with property, transfers and applications at HM Land Registry, and applying for a grant of probate. That work is carried out for you by regulated firms we work with, who are responsible for it, and you are told who they are before anything starts. Will Writing Network is not regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority or the Financial Conduct Authority. We do not give tax advice. Trusts are not right for everyone: they create duties that last for years, including registration with HMRC, and they cannot guarantee that care fees or inheritance tax will be avoided. If your main aim is to avoid care fees, your adviser will tell you honestly whether a trust is likely to achieve that. Everything is quoted as a fixed fee before any work begins.
