About the service

The Essential package represents the perfect entry point for anyone ready to take control of their legacy without unnecessary complexity. Priced at £49, it delivers everything you need for a legally binding will that protects your loved ones and ensures your wishes are honoured. This package is specifically designed for individuals with straightforward estate planning needs — perhaps you're single and want to leave everything to a sibling, married and planning to leave assets to your spouse, or simply want to ensure your children inherit equally.

Whatever your situation, if it doesn't involve complex trust arrangements, business succession planning, or intricate conditional distributions, the Essential package has you covered. Every Essential will includes the same foundational legal protections that solicitors charge £300-£500 to provide: proper attestation clauses, revocation of previous wills, appointment of executors, and clear beneficiary designations. Our platform guides you through each decision with plain-English explanations, eliminating the intimidating legal jargon that makes traditional will-writing feel inaccessible. You'll understand exactly what you're creating at every step.

The streamlined process typically takes just 10-15 minutes to complete, with our adaptive system intelligently skipping sections that don't apply to your situation. Once finished, you'll receive a professionally formatted PDF ready for printing and signing. We also provide clear instructions on the witnessing requirements specific to your jurisdiction, ensuring your will stands up to legal scrutiny. The Essential package proves that protecting your family doesn't require spending a fortune or navigating complex legal processes — it simply requires taking that first important step.
