Will writing at home, across Warwickshire and the West Midlands

Peace of mind, in one unhurried afternoon.

Most people put off writing a will for years. Then they sit down with us over a cup of tea, and it is done in about an hour. No office, no jargon, no rush. Just a kind, careful conversation at your own kitchen table.

It takes about an hour.

One relaxed conversation covers almost everyone's wishes. We do all the writing afterwards.

You do not need to know any legal words.

You talk about your family and your home in plain English. Turning it into the proper wording is our job.

You can change it later.

A will is not set in stone. As life changes, we update it for you, simply and inexpensively.

What we write

Everything settled, nothing complicated

Six straightforward services cover almost every family. If you are not sure which you need, that is exactly what the first chat is for.

  1. 01

    Single Wills

    A clear, properly worded will that says exactly who gets what, and who looks after things. Written with you, checked twice, explained fully.

  2. 02

    Mirror Wills for Couples

    Two matching wills for partners who share their wishes. Sorted together in the same visit, over the same pot of tea.

  3. 03

    Lasting Powers of Attorney

    Choose the people you trust to help with decisions if you ever cannot make them yourself. A kindness to your family, arranged calmly now.

  4. 04

    Trusts

    Sometimes a simple trust helps protect a home or provide for someone who needs a little extra care. We explain the options in plain words.

  5. 05

    Will Reviews & Updates

    New grandchild? Moved house? We read your existing will with you, tell you honestly if it still does the job, and update it if it does not.

  6. 06

    Secure Will Storage

    Your signed will kept safe, dry and findable, with a card for your wallet so your family always knows where it is.

What happens when we visit

Three gentle steps, and it is done

  1. 1

    A relaxed chat at your kitchen table

    We come to you, daytime or evening. You tell us about your family, your home and your wishes, in your own words. Most people say it is far easier than they expected.

    About an hour
  2. 2

    We draft and check everything

    Back at our desk we turn your wishes into the proper wording, check it carefully, then send it to you to read at your own pace. Anything unclear, we explain until it is not.

    Usually within a week
  3. 3

    You sign with witnesses, and it is done

    We pop back so you can sign with two witnesses present, exactly as the law requires. Then the kettle goes on, and a job you put off for years is quietly finished.

Asked quietly, answered kindly

The questions people almost apologise for asking

There is no such thing as a silly question about a will. These are the ones we hear most, usually over the second cup of tea.

Do I have to decide everything before you arrive?

No. Bring your half-formed thoughts and we will untangle them together. Helping you decide is most of what the visit is for.

Is it a sad conversation?

Honestly, no. Most visits involve more laughter than tissues. It is a conversation about the people you love, and it usually ends with relief.

Are you solicitors?

We are a professional will writing service, not a firm of solicitors, and we are members of a professional will writing body with full insurance. If your situation ever needs a solicitor, we will say so plainly and point you to one.

What if I already have a will?

Lovely, you are ahead of most people. We will read it with you, tell you honestly whether it still does the job, and only suggest changes if they are genuinely needed.

Kind words

From families we have visited

We had been meaning to do our wills for eleven years. It took one Tuesday afternoon and honestly felt like a weight lifting. We should have rung sooner.

Margaret & Colin, both 68, Leamington Spa

I was dreading it and nearly cancelled twice. Instead it was a warm chat at my own table, everything explained in plain English, and it was signed within a fortnight.

Susan, 54, Solihull

They came out one evening after work, sorted the powers of attorney for Mum, and never once made us feel rushed or foolish for asking questions. Genuinely lovely people.

Book a friendly chat

The hardest part is the phone call. It is also very easy.
