If a loved one has died with assets of more than £5,000 then, if there is a Will, the executors must apply for a Grant of Probate or, if there is no Will, the next of kin must apply to the Courts for 'letters of administration'.

If you're in doubt as to whether you need a Grant of Probate then simply call us without obligation.

Thereafter, the form filling, letter writing, phone calls and general sorting out of someone's estate can be quite stressful and very time consuming, especially if there's a property to sell. However, everyone agrees that banks and solicitors charge far too much for probate work.

Now, Will Drafters aim to change all that. By using our nationwide panel of specialist solicitors and legal execs we can get the job done for you quickly, efficiently and, because of the large amount of probate work we do, at the best value-for-money price.

We comply with the Solicitors' Introduction and Referral Code published by the Law Society, and any solicitor to whom we may refer you is an independent professional from whom you will receive impartial and confidential advice.

99.9% of solicitors will not normally give you a fixed fee quote and neither will banks.

Often they quote a percentage of the estate varying between 1% and 5%, plus an hourly charge which is higher than some people earn in a week (usually between £200 to £300 per hour) - without committing themselves to how many hours, plus disbursements - whatever they are, and finally, plus another 17.5% for VAT on the whole, already huge, bill!

However, at Will Drafters, when you appoint us we don't ask you to sign a blank cheque. We will give you a fixed fee quote in advance and in writing.

We offer a fully inclusive fixed fee service with no hidden extras, no last minute surprises and nothing more to pay - guaranteed:

We will beat any other written quote - guaranteed!


No upfront payment required as our low-cost, fixed fee can be paid from the estate later.


All probate work undertaken by a member of our nationwide panel of solicitors and legal execs.

To save you even more time, inconvenience and worrying about things getting lost in the post, we will arrange, at a mutually convenient time, safe and secure hand-collection, at your door, of all important documents and paperwork.


You choose how much of the work you want us to do - we can do it all or assist you with only part.
