How much for a will

cheggers

I'm getting a will done for myself & the Mrs, the solicitors are quoting £140-250 for a standard will.

How much have other people on average paid for a standard will????

I know you can buy DIY kits from WH Smiths, but I want to do the will through a solictor as I need a few things puting in the will that I would not be able to do on diy kit.

That is very expensive. A standard will should be £75-£100. I would try another solicitor.

Have you considered the implications of inheritance tax? If not, using a standard or mirror will could prove to be a very expensive mistake for the surviving partner. Well worth looking into the implications of inheritance tax.

I paid over £200 for my will with a solicitor. My will was complicated and I feel that for such an important thing you need to get it done by a solicitor. This cost for my & my partners will.

Who ever does your will you need to take full responsibility and ensure that it is drawn up correctly and that you understand extactly what is says. I had several meeting with my solicitor to get him to explain the contents and to also make changes to it.
