    Don’t use a will writer or DIY it. Far too important. Shop around solicitors as many will do it for less.

    The solicitor will ask lots of what if type of question.. who would look after your child ...... guardian. The answer may well change depending on your son's age
    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill

    As above avoid so called "professional will writers" and get a solicitor to do the will.

    Thanks everyone. I will call a few more solicitors to see if i can get it under £200 somewhere. I'm not old enough for free wills in March.
