    A simple will covers how someone’s assets are arranged to be passed on after death, typically with a straightforward set of gifts and a single or a couple of executors. A solicitor drafts and amends the document, checks that it clearly expresses the testator’s wishes, and ensures formal validity, including proper signing and witnessing. They review who should benefit, appoint guardians for any minor children, and consider basic tax and debt issues so the will operates smoothly when probate is sought.
