    Have a look here for a solicitor that specialises in wills

    You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time

    Ask about home visits and charges for them.

    I had two home visits; one to discuss the contents and one to get it signed and witnessed. Anything that came up in between was done by email.

    Don't let the solicitor be the executor.

    When you see the solicitor take with you full names and addresses of yourself and your father together with his address. It all saves time.


    Why? Would they otherwise have to drive back home to get them? :D
