Leaving a will

paul2468

My mother who is 75 would like to change her will, or a part of it...she went back to the people who did it a few years ago and they want £50 to make changes...Is there anywhere that she can get a will done for free, or at very low cost ?

To be honest, £50 seems like a reasonable sum to make sure that her wishes are recorded accurately and that the changes will have the necessary legal authority to stop there being any dispute over her intentions.

Hi,

if it's something simple she could just add a codicil, as long as it's witnessed.

There's a sample codicil here - https://www.mariecurie.org.uk/Documents/DONATE/Codicil-1009.pdf

Change section 1 to show the changes she wants to make.

See whether that will cover the alterations otherwise £50 seems very good value.
