FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


LegalWills.co.uk Launches DIY Online Legal Will Service

July 28, 2009

According to LegalWills.co.uk, every adult in the UK should have prepared their last will and testament but as many as two thirds have not. The most common reasons given for not having a will are the inconvenience of setting up meetings with a lawyer and, in these tough economic times, the high cost of professional assistance. However, there's no legal requirement to use a lawyer to create a will. The new, online service from Legalwills.co.uk allows individuals to prepare their will, in the convenience of their own home, for a fraction of the cost of hiring a lawyer.

Legalwills.co.uk has worked with lawyers in the UK to provide a completely interactive service with clear, concise online help that steps people through the process of creating a legal will. The service uses advanced technology and the convenience of the internet so site users can complete a will in around 30-40 minutes. The clauses used in the document are the exact same clauses used by lawyers throughout the UK today, and the finished document is as legally binding as a professionally prepared document. As the service is fully interactive, it guards against the most common pitfalls inherent within the DIY will kits available in high street shops, without the expense of hiring a lawyer.

"Creating a will used to be an expensive and inconvenient ordeal," explains CEO Tim Hewson, "but now customers can finally take charge of their own affairs and finally cross 'make a will' off their 'to do' list. For an introductory rate of just £34.95, customers can have a fully legal will in their hands in just minutes."

An added advantage of this service is that customers can store their documents securely online. Instead of returning to a lawyer to update their will, they can address any changes in their personal or financial situation by logging into their account, making a change to an asset or beneficiary, and then printing out a new version. Once this is signed and witnessed, they have a new, up-to-date will.

Other complementary services available at LegalWills.co.uk include an interactive funeral wishes application and Living Will creation tool.

The service is currently available for residents of England and Wales.
