Expert Will Writing Service

At Paradigm, we consider having a will to be one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your family. This document provides legal protection for your spouse, children, and assets, and outlines your specific preferences for handling matters after you’ve passed away.

A will not only safeguards the financial legacy you intend to leave for your family, but most importantly, provides peace of mind knowing that your finances are secure.

How can we help?

At Paradigm Wills & Legal Services in Leicester and London, we offer expert assistance in will writing, and we strongly advocate for the importance of having a will. Over the years, we have assisted people who:

own property;
aim to reduce property inheritance tax;
have assets and specific preferences;
are married, in a civil partnership, or have a long-term partner;
have children or other dependents, including children from different relationships;
live overseas.

Remember that without a will, you have no say over the distribution of your assets, which can cause difficulties for those closest to you after you’ve passed away.

With our continued support, we free you from the burden of worry and provide you with peace of mind that your assets will be inherited by your loved ones when you are no longer here.

At Paradigm Wills and Legal Services, we genuinely care about educating people on the importance of making a lasting power of attorney in Leicester. In an industry often loaded with complex legal jargon and a conveyor-belt mentality, we provide a paradigm shift in how we offer our wills services. We aim to supply fresh ideas, clear and straightforward explanations, and a service tailored specifically to you. With you at the centre, we strive to make the will writing process as transparent as possible.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION

At Paradigm Wills & Legal Services, we understand the importance of having a clear and legally sound will. Whether your estate is modest or complex, ensuring your wishes are followed is essential. Our will-writing services are designed to make the process straightforward and accessible.

Can I update or change my will after it’s created?

Yes, you can update or change your will at any time. Life circumstances change, and your will should reflect those changes. Events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, or significant changes in assets are all good reasons to review and update your will. Regular reviews ensure it remains accurate and aligned with your intentions.

How long does it take to create a will?

The time required to create a will depends on its complexity. A straightforward will can be completed quickly, often within a few days. For more detailed wills or those involving additional elements like trusts, the process may take longer. At Paradigm Wills, we aim to complete the process efficiently while ensuring everything is handled thoroughly.

Is it necessary to have a solicitor for will creation?

While it’s not a legal requirement to use a solicitor, professional assistance is highly recommended. A professionally drafted will ensures all legal requirements are met and reduces the risk of disputes or errors. Our team ensures your will is clear, legally valid, and meets your specific needs.

Can Paradigm Wills help with setting up trusts within a will?

Yes, we can help set up trusts as part of your will. Trusts can protect assets, provide for vulnerable beneficiaries, or manage how your estate is distributed. Common options include discretionary trusts and property protection trusts. We can guide you through the process and ensure the trust aligns with your wishes.

Do I need a will if I don’t have many assets?

Yes, having a will is important regardless of the size of your estate. A will ensures your belongings are distributed according to your preferences and allows you to address other important matters, such as appointing guardians for minor children. Without one, these decisions will be made by default under the law, which may not reflect your wishes.

What happens if I don’t have a will?

If you die without a will, your estate will be distributed according to the rules of intestacy. This could result in unintended outcomes, such as specific family members inheriting everything or others being left out entirely. Intestacy can also create additional stress and delays for loved ones, which can be avoided by having a will in place.

How often should I review my will?

It’s recommended to review your will every three to five years or after major life events. Changes in family circumstances, such as marriage, divorce, or the birth of a child, as well as financial changes, are all good reasons to revisit your will. Regular reviews help ensure it remains relevant and reflects your current wishes.

How long does it take to complete a will or estate plan?

Creating a simple will can often be completed within a few days. For a more detailed estate plan, including trusts or tax considerations, the process may take longer. At Paradigm Wills, we work efficiently to complete your documents in a timely manner while ensuring they are comprehensive and accurate.
