Which? Wills review route
Which? Wills is one of the more recognisable online will-writing routes. This page helps you judge fit before clicking through.
What to decide first
Before comparing providers, separate the job into two parts. First, can an online will service sensibly handle your situation? Second, if it can, which provider gives you the right level of support, review and guidance?
Use this route for comparison if…
- You know who should inherit and who should act as executor.
- You do not expect a serious dispute.
- You can choose independent witnesses who are not beneficiaries.
- You are not trying to solve tax, trust, overseas property or business-planning questions.
Why the signing process still matters
GOV.UK is clear that a will needs to be formally witnessed and signed to make it legally valid. Online guidance can help, but the responsibility to follow the process properly remains important. A well-written document can still cause problems if it is signed incorrectly.
Compare the whole service
Look beyond the first price. Check whether professional checking is included, whether updates cost extra, how long document access lasts, what happens if you need help, and whether optional executor or storage services are being promoted separately.
