Why should I use mlplaw instead of making a DIY Will?
Legal Expertise
Our team of solicitors have a wealth of knowledge in Wills, Trusts and Probate law to ensure your Will is legally binding and suits your requirements and circumstances. We can provide valuable advice on estate planning strategies to minimise taxes, protect your assets for your loved ones, and if you have complex personal circumstances, ensure your wishes are met.
Avoiding Risks
If your will is not drafted by a solicitor, there are risks involved. Wills that are not drafted properly can lead to confusion, disputes, and even legal challenges after your passing. By working with a solicitor, you can minimise the risk of errors or ambiguities that could invalidate your will or lead to unintended consequences.
Accounting for Changes in Circumstances
Personal and financial circumstances can change over time, such as marriage, divorce, birth of children, or acquisition of new assets. A professionally drafted Will can prepare for these future changes in circumstances to avoid the cost of having to regularly prepare new Wills.
Peace of Mind
Knowing that your will has been professionally drafted and legally sound can provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones. It can also help alleviate potential stress and conflict among beneficiaries in the future.
