Will Writing Services in Lewes

Hart Reade are experienced solicitors who have offices in Eastbourne, Polegate and Hailsham. Due to where we are situated, we also offer will writing services in Lewes, Uckfield, Heathfield and all the surrounding towns & villages of East Sussex.

We can assist you in making a Will, however simple or complicated it may be. We can also advise you on the opportunities for setting up simple Trusts and limiting a potential liability to Inheritance Tax.

In making a Will, you also need to consider whether you wish to make specific gifts of individual items and leave legacies to family members, friends or perhaps to charities. It is then necessary to consider how the remainder of your estate is divided up. We can guide you through the process and we request that you complete our Will Questionnaire in advance of your appointment. All cases vary and we will quote according to your particular requirements and circumstances.

The appointment of Executors also needs to be considered carefully. We can advise on the appropriate family or friends to do this. Where required, the partners of the firm can act as Executors.

You may also be looking to set up Lasting Powers of Attorney. We can help with both financial and health POAs as well as advising you upon the opportunities for setting up simple Trusts.

Do I need a will?

If you die without a Will, or leave a Will which is incomplete or invalid, the law determines what happens to your estate. If you are married, it does not necessarily follow that the whole of your estate passes to your spouse. “Common Law” partners are not recognised under the Intestacy Rules.

We may also be able to help protect your Will from being contested at a later date.

Failure to make a Will can not only lead to unexpected results, but cause much heartache and unhappiness for those who survive you.

Having a Will prepared by an experienced Solicitor can provide reassurance to you and your family.
