Start Your Will ›A valid will is one of the most important things you can put in place for the people you care about. It sets out exactly who inherits your estate, who you trust to carry out your wishes, and — if you have children — who would look after them. Without one, those decisions are taken out of your hands entirely.
At My Local Will Writer, we make the process straightforward. You fill in a short online form, speak to one of our will writers by phone, and receive a solicitor-checked will ready to sign — without leaving home.
Without a valid will, your estate is distributed according to the rules of intestacy — a legal framework that may bear little resemblance to what you actually wanted. Unmarried partners receive nothing under intestacy law regardless of how long you've been together. Stepchildren are not automatically included. Assets you assumed would pass to a specific person may not.
A professionally written will removes that uncertainty. It protects your partner, provides for your children, names the people you trust as executors, and gives your family clear instructions at an already difficult time.
We cover a range of will writing needs for individuals and couples across the UK:
For individuals who want to set out their wishes clearly — who inherits, who acts as executor, and any specific wishes for assets or personal possessions.
For couples who want to make matching wills at the same time — typically leaving everything to each other and then to agreed beneficiaries.
Where you want to protect assets for children from a previous relationship, manage how and when beneficiaries receive their inheritance, or ring-fence property from care costs.
If your circumstances have changed — a new property, a marriage or divorce, the birth of a child, or a change in who you'd like to benefit — we can help you update or replace your current will.
Tell us about your circumstances, your wishes, and who you'd like to benefit from your estate. It takes around 10 minutes.
One of our will writers calls you to review your details, answer any questions, and make sure everything is right before anything is drafted. There's nothing you need to prepare — just a straightforward conversation.
Your will is prepared and reviewed by a qualified solicitor to ensure it's legally sound and accurately reflects your wishes.
We send your will to you with clear signing instructions. Once signed in the presence of two independent witnesses, it's legally valid. We'll guide you through exactly what's required.

Start Your Will ›Yes. A will is legally valid in England and Wales as long as it's signed by you in the presence of two independent witnesses, who also sign it. We provide clear instructions for this when your will is ready.
