When completing Wills in Witham and other parts of Essex, you may be interested to know that all too regularly I am asked by clients whether they could just fill out a form online to make their Wills in the form of online Wills.
My answer is always the same: DO NOT DO IT!
Of course, there can be no denying that the more traditional approach is significantly more expensive than the fees you will typically see advertised for making online Wills in Witham and other locations throughout Essex and the rest of the UK.
However, there are a number of questions that you really need to ask yourself if you are even considering completing your Wills in Witham online or elsewhere in Essex or throughout the rest of the UK.
(a) If you use an online form to make your will, how are you going to know if you have correctly written your Will?
(b) Are you sure that your online Will does what you want it to?
(c) Have you covered all of the points that you should have (and wanted) covered?
(d) What about issues of Inheritance Tax and/or Residential Care fees?
(e) Have legal formalities associated with the completion of your Will like its need to be signed and witnessed correctly been completed?
In summary, it is arguable that if you complete your Wills in Witham or anywhere else in Essex or more widely in the UK by filling out an online form then you are unlikely to have any real peace of mind since you must also ask yourself:
(a) What if things do go wrong?
(b) Most online companies that allow you to make a Will by just filling out a form will include a disclaimer so you also need to consider whether it will prevent your beneficiaries from claiming for any loss that they accrue as a result?
(c) Finally, is the online Will company that you are looking at always going to be around?
May be it is just old fashioned but the potential problems that could arise arguably speak for themselves. In addition, it is arguable that there really is nothing quite like dealing with another human being face-to-face in your own home in places like Witham because then you can ask all of the questions that you want to at once and get professional advice on things you may have overlooked or not really considered.
With this in mind, you are advised to contact a service provider like Andrew Douglas Wills and Legal Services who will give you a FREE no obligation consultation in the comfort of your own home to give you the peace of mind that you deserve through the writing of your Wills in Witham and other locations throughout Essex.
