This is a common question and rightfully so as more and more Will writing websites appear online and more and more people turn to the internet for convenience. Not only is a Will writing website convenient but in most cases it is also cheaper than visiting a solicitor or Will drafter. What i would say is that when making a Will online it is worth checking that the website you are using have their Wills underwritten by a firm of solicitors. Also, ensure that the website offers Wills under your constituent law. For example:
- If you reside in Scotland with assets in Scotland you must make a scottish Will
- If you reside in England or Wales you can only use Will writing websites that offer Wills under english and welsh law.
