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.

“My wife and I have in recent months engaged Richard into our Inheritance planning, he made what is quite a complex area very understandable. We have used Richard's services to amend our Wills, create LPA's and LFA's and finally create 2 Trusts with Deeds of Variation. I'm sure we will need more advice in this area in future.”
