FAQs

While it’s possible to write your own will, mistakes or unclear wording can lead to confusion or disputes. A solicitor ensures your will is legally valid, accurately reflects your wishes, and reduces the risk of future challenges.
If you pass away without a will, your estate will be divided according to intestacy rules — which may not align with your wishes. Unmarried partners, stepchildren, or close friends, for example, may not inherit anything. Writing a will gives you control and peace of mind.
Probate typically takes between 6 and 12 months, depending on the complexity of the estate. Delays can occur if there are disputes, unpaid taxes, or difficulties locating assets. Our probate solicitors work efficiently to minimise delays and keep you informed throughout the process.
An LPA is a legal document that allows someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf if you lose mental capacity. There are two types — one for health and welfare, and another for property and financial affairs. Our solicitors can help you set one up and register it with the Office of the Public Guardian.
Yes — you can update your will at any time, as long as you still have mental capacity. We recommend reviewing your will after major life changes such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or a significant financial shift.
