Cost of a Will

A Simple Will, drafted by a professional should cost no more than about £85 with Mirror Wills not much more than that.

The cost of making a Will can vary depending on how it is prepared and how complex your circumstances are. At the simplest level, some people choose to write their own Will using templates or online services. While this can be low-cost, it carries risks if the document is unclear or does not meet legal requirements.

Professional Will writing services or solicitors typically charge a fee, which may be a fixed price for Simple Wills but will be slightly higher for a more Tailored Will.  Costs can increase if your situation involves blended families and you need a more protective WIll or have multiple properties, business assets, or needs detailed tax planning.

It’s important to see the cost of a Will in context. A well-prepared Will can help avoid disputes, reduce delays, and potentially save money in the long run by ensuring your estate is handled efficiently. Errors or omissions, on the other hand, can lead to costly legal complications for your family.

Some providers offer mirror Wills for couples at a reduced combined cost, and others may include storage or review services as part of their fee.

Ultimately, the cost of a Will reflects the level of advice, clarity, and peace of mind it provides. Choosing the right approach depends on your individual needs and how straightforward or complex your estate is.

➡️ Many couples consider Mirror Wills as a practical option if they are looking for Wills for married couples or those in a Civil Partnership and even Wills for couples who are not yet married, but planning to get married.
