Hi,
Sorry if this isn’t in the correct section.

I/we are looking to make a will, and looking for a bit of advice on how to make one and the cost.
I am guessing it will be a simple Will, we want everything to go to the living partner, then onto to out 3 children.
We are Mortgage free and have saving in different bank accounts in each others name, we have shares as well in my name, and I have 2 pensions which I haven’t touched yet.

I just want a Will that is secure….

Could someone please help me out and explain what I would need to do (in lamens terms).

House is currently worth about £100000.

    The Law Society has a database that you can search for local Solicitors who offer Will writing services.

    You can then contact individual firms for pricing, and get a feel for which one is the best fit for you. You'd then book an appointment where your wishes can be discussed and translated into a written Will. The Will is then written up, witnessed within the Solicitor firm and they'll let you know when it's finalised and ready.

    Citizens Advice have a good information page too which includes details of a free option.
