Panic buying and Will writing. It may not have been your first thought when the Coronavirus first took hold in the UK, but Laura Richardson explains why Will writing should have been every bit as much of a priority . . .

With supermarkets having reported shelf shortages of many household staples, including paracetamol, toilet roll and pasta, it is clear that UK residents were preparing themselves as we faced up to the threat of the latest Coronavirus. However, it is also surprising to note that there was not an increase in the number of people wishing to put their affairs in order or make sure they held a valid, up to date Will.

Whilst Andrew Douglas Wills & Legal Services do not wish to scaremonger the British public since panic buying and Will writing are not one and the same, it stands to reason that now is as good a time as any to make sure that our loved ones will be protected should the worst happen.

Making a Will is a relatively straightforward process in most cases and need not take up a great deal of your time. As specialists in this area of the Law you can be sure that you will receive a professional, yet friendly service from our experts at Andrew Douglas Wills & Legal Services. What’s more, Andrew Douglas Wills & Legal Services offer a complimentary full remote service in line with current social distancing rules.

The process is simple, we offer a free initial consultation within which you can discuss your own requirements as well as ask any questions that you may have regarding your Will. Should you decide to go ahead and make or amend your Will then one of our experienced team will talk you through a series of questions to determine exactly what your Estate entails, as well as how you would like your Estate to be distributed after your death. Once complete, your Will will be drawn up and sent to you in draft form for you to approve or amend. Throughout this process, our team will be at hand to answer any queries and talk you through any additions or amendments that you may wish to make. Once you are completely satisfied with your Will then your Will will be drawn up as a final copy for you to sign. Once signed, you should ensure that your Will is stored in a safe place, however, Andrew Douglas Wills & Legal Services do offer a secure Will storage service should you feel that this would be safer for you.

It really is as simple as it sounds, so why not contact Andrew Douglas Wills & Legal Services today to arrange your free initial consultation?
