General Will Writing FAQs
Q: Do I really need a will?
A: Yes. Without a valid will, your estate may be handled under intestacy laws that may not reflect your wishes. Working with a local will writer in Potters Bar or Hertfordshire ensures your will is legally valid and tailored to you.
Q: How often should I update my will?
A: Our will writers recommend reviewing your will every three to five years — or sooner if your life changes, such as marriage, divorce, having children, buying property, or moving within Potters Bar or Hertfordshire.
Q: Is a local will writer better than doing it myself?
A: Yes. A DIY will may not stand up legally. Working with a trusted will writing service in Potters Bar or Hertfordshire ensures your wishes are protected and your documents meet UK legal requirements.
Family Asset Trust FAQs
Q: What is a Family Asset Trust?
A: A Family Asset Trust helps many homeowners in Potters Bar and Hertfordshire protect their property and savings from probate delays, care costs and some legal claims. It can also help reduce inheritance tax and make sure your wealth stays in your family.
Q: Who should set up a Family Asset Trust?
A: Homeowners in Potters Bar, Hertfordshire and surrounding areas who want to protect their estate for future generations and avoid complications with probate or care fees often benefit from this service.
Online Will Writing FAQs
Q: Are online wills legally valid in the UK?
A: Yes. Our online will writing service in Hertfordshire and London ensures your will follows the Wills Act 1837. It must be made in writing, signed by you, and properly witnessed by two independent adults. Every will is checked by a qualified estate planning consultant.
Q: Who is an online will suitable for?
A: Online wills are a good option for people with straightforward estates who prefer to arrange everything from home. It’s ideal for families and professionals in Hertfordshire, Potters Bar or London who want a secure, convenient way to protect their estate.
Q: Can I still have a home visit instead of an online will?
A: Absolutely. We continue to offer free home consultations for clients who prefer to meet face-to-face. Our local will writers in Potters Bar and across Hertfordshire will visit you at a time that works for you.
