How to make a will

Before you start to think about how to make a will, there are some decisions that you’re going to need to make.

These include:

  • which type of will you want to make
  • who you'd like to inherit from you
  • who you'd like to look after your children (if they're under 18)
  • whether you'd like to leave anything to charity
  • who you'd like to deal with your estate after you die

You can either have made these decisions before you start to make your will or you can discuss your thoughts with your will writer at your appointment. Once you’ve decided, you’ll need to have certain information to hand, including the names and addresses of anyone you're naming in your will.

Common questions about wills

Will writing services authorised and regulated by the SRA

Co-op Legal Services is a trading name for Co-operative Legal Services Limited which is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). This gives you peace of mind that your will is being written and stored correctly by a brand you know and can trust.

There is no such thing as writing a standard will

There is only one of you and your will is personal to your circumstances, your wishes and your assets. When making a will you need to consider questions such as:

  • who will look after your children?
  • what will happen to your home?
  • what will happen to your pets?
  • will Inheritance Tax (IHT) be payable on your estate?

These are just a few of the points we'll cover with you as part of our will writing service.
