To have a say, you need a Will. Without one, the government decides, and their choices might not be what you wanted. To protect your estate, your family and your wishes you need a professionally-written Will.
Expert Will writing services can help you pass on your assets and protect your loved ones. Protect your legacy if your partner remarries, your children if you both pass, or your children's inheritance from divorce or financial trouble.
You naturally want to make sure your partner's taken care of financially when you’re not around. A Will allows you to set aside assets specifically for them, ensuring your partner's not left in a tough spot. If you are not married, writing a Will is even more important.
As a parent, your main concern is making sure your kids are looked after if you’re not around. Writing a Will lets you name specific guardians to care for your children, ensuring they’re raised by people you trust.
You adore your pets, and you’d hate for them to be neglected if you weren’t there. By writing a Will, you can make sure your beloved animals are looked after by someone who’ll take good care of them.
You like to keep things simple, but even the simplest Will has value because it allows you to appoint executors, usually trusted relatives or friends, to sort things out when you die. This means there is no extra unnecessary stress for your loved ones at the worst possible time.
As someone passionate about supporting good causes, you want your money to keep making a difference after you’re gone. Writing a Will allows you to leave funds for charities, foundations, or community groups, making sure your legacy of giving continues.
If you’re someone who values peace and harmony, you’ll want to make things as easy as possible for your loved ones after you’re gone. By writing a Will, you can make your wishes clear, making a difficult time easier for your family to handle, giving you peace of mind that everything’s sorted.
“Having the Will there made it so much easier to sort out my grandfather’s money than my mother’s was, as she died without a Will.” R. Kendal

Luckily we had used Lakes Wills' services to have this put into place. Without it, I could not have got access to my husband’s bank account. I strongly recommend you all do the same as you never know what tomorrow may bring." H. Lancaster
A Will protects those you love after you're gone, but how do you protect both yourself and them if you are alive but unable to make decisions? In the UK, it's estimated that there will be 1.4 million dementia sufferers by 2040. There are an estimated 900,000 A&E head injury emergencies annually. For those unfortunate enough to lose the ability to decide, if they haven't made plans, for themselves and their loved ones, everything can become a battle with the authorities.
That’s where Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA) come in. LPAs let you appoint someone you trust to make important decisions on your behalf. There are LPAs for health and welfare and separately for your property and finances. They are a safety net, ensuring your wishes are followed even when you can’t voice them yourself.
