Writing your Will online

Your Will is created automatically from information you enter during the step by step process. It\'s fast and simple so you can make a Will within a few minutes!

Signing Your Will in front of two independent witnesses makes your Will a legally binding document.
Your signature must be witnessed by two people who must be present with you as you sign.
Witnesses MUST NOT BE BENEFICIARIES OR MARRIED TO A BENEFICIARY. Nobody who may benefit from your Will can be allowed to act as a witness. If this happens any legacy or benefit they may have received will be forfieted and become part of the remaining (residuary) estate.
The witnesses are only confirming that it is your signature and you are of sound mind - they do not need to read the Will and all other clauses can be covered up if required.
Witnesses should also be sure that you know what you are doing - they must be confident that you have READ your Will and that you are SOBER and of SOUND MIND.
The witnesses are also confirming that the act of signing is YOUR CHOICE - there must be no question of any outside influence persuading you to sign.
Your witnesses should be aged 18 or over and be UK citizens. Signing with Testators who are BLIND or INFIRM require special arrangements and additional instructions can be supplied in such cases.

Your Will remains a legally binding document until you write another Will or deliberately decide to destroy the present document.

We recommend that you review your Will at least every five years. Personal and family circumstances change and it is important that your Will still expresses your wishes in the light of such changes.

Simple additions such as appointing a different executor or adding and removing individual legacies can be effected by giving instructions for a simple CODICIL to be added to your Will. Please contact your Internet Wills or the Society  of Will Writers when you wish to make such adjustments.

Please DO NOT clip or pin any papers to your Will
Please DO NOT attempt to write in any additions or alterations to your Will.
If you need to change the main structure of your Will it is usually advisable to give instructions for writing an entirely new Will.

Where to keep your Will; It is quite acceptable to keep your Will in a safe place at home, although it is advisable to deposit your Will in a secure location away from your home. Whatever you decide, it is important that your executors are informed about the storage arrangements.

Alternatively, contact PFG Wills regarding their will storage facility. You may need to quote your Reference which can be found on the front page of your will.
