Making a will online
Online will writing services allow you to create a legally binding document that protects your family’s future – all from the comfort of your screen. As with the traditional route of writing a will in front of your solicitor. You still need to include the following information:
- Property
- Vehicles
- Savings
- Investments
- Details of who should have these assets after you die
- Any other wishes – such as the type of funeral you want.

Online or offline, there’s no doubt that making a will is vitally important. For all of us, the reality is that one day we’ll no longer be around, but writing a will ensures you can keep some control over how your money, property and possessions are distributed. For example, you can also write in your will that you are planning to leave a gift to a charity. You can also manage your Inheritance Tax liability, settle any family disputes, and make arrangements for your children’s care. If you don’t have a will at the end of your life, you will have died ‘intestate’, which means your estate will be divided according to strictly defined legal rules.
