Witnessing of wills refers to the formal attestation of a will in which the testator signs the document in the presence of two independent witnesses who also sign. This ensures the document’s authenticity and helps prevent disputes after death. A solicitor practicing in this area advises on who may act as a witness, common pitfalls, and the required formalities to avoid invalidation.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A solicitor reviews the will to confirm proper signing and witnessing, checks any potential conflicts of interest, advises on the impact of bequests, and ensures the witnesses are properly identified and eligible. They also guide clients on probate implications and any potential challenges to the will, supported by regulatory safeguards for client funds and professional accountability.

Karen Woods

Tagged solicitor Karen Woods

My family and I used Russell & Russell for the sale of our late mother’s property. Karen Woods and her team provided an excellent service. They were supportive, approachable and always responded quickly to questions and queries. The online portal was easy to use and aided the smooth running of the conveyancing. I’d have no hesitation in using their service in the future or recommending them to others.
