  • Comparing prices for Wills is as pointless as comparing prices for car insurance.

    Price will depend on geographic location, circumstances of the client, who is doing the work, whether any other services are being engaged, such as executors for the Will - amongst other things.

    You can buy a blank at Smith's or even ebay , buy a standard one online, use a will writer or a solicitor .. its up to you depending on how easy - if you want advice etc / get it right ? come back

    I just redid my will at the solicitors I used last time. In effect it was a whole new will. Charge £100 plus vat.
  • 1. Search google for will.
    2. Sellect one which is really cheap. Say £15.

    Some companies do the will at a lost and only make money if you buy insurance to cover (watch out for the hard sell) the time between death and the claim being paid.

    If you don't buy the insurance then it's just £15.
