Writing your Will is an essential part of financial planning but it can also be a very expensive thing to do. However, there is an amazingly simple thing you can do reduce the cost. Use one of the Will Writing Firms that exist instead of using a Solicitor. The thing is that many people are attracted to this idea but are wary of using such a company. In this article, I am going to give you 3 killer tips for employing such an organisation to do the job for you. Sit back and discover the secrets to getting this matter sorted out quickly and safely.
The first way to protect yourself from any problems is to use a well established company that has been in business for a good length of time. They would have struggled to remain in existence if they offered a very bad service so this is some reassurance to start off with. It also means that you can go onto the internet and carry out your own research and see if their existing customers have had good or bad experiences with them. A simple search against the company name might bring up some useful responses and you should also search through relevant on line forums and see if there are any comments about the firm. This is helpful before moving on to tip number 2.
The second thing to do is find out if they are a member of a relevant professional body. This will give you a great deal of confidence because the professional bodies insist that their members are properly trained and hold the correct qualifications to give you the advice that you need. Vitally, they also insist that their members hold proper Liability Insurance, usually in the region of two million pounds. You then know that the advice that you will receive will be correct and that you will always have a way of gaining recompense if you have to make a complaint at a later date. The insurance cover will protect you even if the company stops trading. The two major bodies who oversee Will Writing Firms in the UK are The Society of Will writers and the Institute of Professional Willwriters. You can call them and make certain that membership is up to date. Want to know what else you can do to get a great service? See tip number 3.
Check out the company's reputation. Ask around and see if anyone you know has used them. One of the large will writing firms or even a local one may well have advised one of your family or friends. Remember those on line forums I mentioned earlier? You could also pose a question about people's experience of their customer service and satisfaction and see what response you get. The organisation itself should also be able to provide you with testimonials and be happy for you to contact one or two clients.
You probably already know that Will Writing Firms offer a lower cost service. There are plenty of such people offering this service. You only have to look in the local telephone book or the pages of the financial press to see just how many exist. But now you also know how to go about choosing one to use safely. You can save yourself a good deal of money but still sleep at night in the knowledge that you have got a professionally prepared legal document.
