Writing a Will

Hi,

I'm sure this has been covered before but I couldn't find anything on it. Doesn't help that "will" is a difficult word to search on!

I want to write a will. My circumstances are pretty straight-forward (cohabiting, no dependents, no mega-wealthy.) What's the best service to use? Are there any templates I can download cheaply or free?

Any pitfalls to avoid?

thanks,

n

    I bought a template in my local post office. It was very good, clear einstructions etc and it was only £5

    Was this a hard copy - like a form you fill in the blanks?
    Or a software/digital version ?
    I'd quite like a digital version as it'll be easier to amend or keep updated.

    Smiths sell a Will pack with a hard copy & digital version. Haven't tried it but it seems to sell pretty well. Think they are about £7ish.

    HTH;)
