Our prices for drafting a will also include our ‘no hidden costs’ promise. This means the price you see quoted is the price you pay. Other firms often exclude or charge separately for additional services when drafting a will such as assessing testamentary capacity, home visits, dealing with certain trusts, properties or high value assets and issues with severance of life interests meaning you could end up paying much more than the initial quote appears. Our fixed fees include all work and, if necessary, a home visit in the Merseyside and Cheshire.
Our fixed fees for different types of will are as follows:
- £200+vat for a simple will and £350+vat for a mirror will
- £400+vat individual for a life interest will concerning the family home and £600+vat for a mirror life interest will concerning the family home
- £500+vat for a life interest will concerning the whole estate and £650+vat for a mirror life interest will concerning the whole estate
Disbursements and timescales
The only disbursements for our will writing service are mileage rates at the HMRC rate of 45p per mile in the event a home visit is required and, should the same be necessary on account of complex tax affairs, fees of any necessary advisor such as an accountant or counsel.
Timescales to complete a will vary from a few days to a few weeks.
