When you own a house or have valuable savings it is advisable to have a professionally drafted Will. The cost of the Will is relatively small compared to the value of your assets, and using a Solicitor avoids the risk of making mistakes in a homemade Will. Fairstep's team of solicitors and expert Will writers have been serving clients in the Ipswich and Felixstowe areas since 1988, establishing a strong reputation in the process. With us, you can be confident that you will receive a professional and precise service, ensuring that you have complete control over the outcome of your assets. Furthermore, in the very unlikely event that an error is made in the Will-writing process, solicitors’ firms have a professional indemnity insurance policy you can claim against.
Why You Should Make a Will with Fairstep;
- By making a Will you can make sure your estate goes to the right people in the right proportions, thereby doing your best to avoid family quarrels and expense;
- If you and your partner are not married or civil partners, it is vital to make a Will; otherwise your partner, however long you have been together, may get a raw deal.
- If you and your spouse are separated but not divorced (by decree absolute), unless you make a Will to the contrary, they may well inherit your estate;
- You can choose your executors – the people who will carry out the instructions in your Will – for yourself;
- You can give great pleasure to people dear to you by leaving them keepsakes or small gifts, and you may even be able to right some past wrongs;
- You may be able to reduce the amount of Inheritance Tax payable or safeguard a loved-one's interests with a right of residence or discretionary trust.
- We offer evening Will appointments in the hope it will make it easier for you to make your Will.
But what can be lost in professionally drafted Wills is the personal touch. People read the Wills written for them and wonder why it is that the words on the pages are not in language they would use or sometimes can even understand. It needn’t be like that though. Wills do not even have to be written in antique language. In the Wills we write plain English rules and we want the Will to be an expression of your personality. If you want your ashes scattered at sea so in the next life you come back as a mermaid that’s what your Will should say. It is this level of personal attention and guidance which we believe sets our team apart, and makes us the ideal choice for those in the wider Ipswich and Felixstowe areas that are looking to write their Wills.
