Will Writing

Security for your family

Why have a will?

Writing a will is an essential part of estate planning and gives you control over what happens to your money, property, and possessions. A professionally prepared will ensures your assets are passed on according to your wishes, allows you to appoint guardians for any dependants, and provides clear instructions for the people responsible for managing your estate.

Proper will writing can also help protect family interests, support business continuity, and reduce the risk of misunderstandings or disputes between loved ones. Without a valid will, your estate may be distributed according to intestacy rules, which may not reflect your intentions.

Overall, will writing is an important step in protecting your estate, supporting the people who matter most to you, and making things easier for your family in the future. At Clearpath, we provide professional guidance throughout the whole process, helping you create a clear and legally valid will that reflects your wishes.

Single Will

This is a Will written by an individual to instruct their Executors of their wishes, and how they would like their estate to be dealt with when they pass away, but a Single Will is not only for single people. You can have a Single Will if you are in a relationship, married or in a Civil partnership.

Single wills priced at £249.

Mirror Will

Mirror Wills are where married couples, or partners effectively ‘mirror’ each other’s wishes leaving the surviving spouse/partner their estate, then on second death down to children, family or whomsoever they wish. If a married couple do not have a Will, on first death the first £270,000 goes to the surviving spouse and the balance is split equally between the surviving spouse and any children the person had. This could cause difficulties in the future if the children are from previous relationships. See Complex/Bloodline Wills for more options.

Mirror wills priced at £349.

Complex/Bloodline Will

If a couple marry and each have children from a previous relationship, this would be the best option to consider. Also, if you are concerned about care home fees in the future, this is also the best way to deal with it. Rather than leaving your estate to your partner/spouse, half the house or estate goes into Trust on first death then if the remaining partner/spouse remarries or needs care, only half of the assets can be looked at. You may also be interested in Lifetime Trusts – see our Trusts page for more information.

Complex/Bloodline wills priced at £649.
