Will Writer Worksop: Professional Will Writing Services

Trusted, local will writing services for Worksop and Bassetlaw families

Why Choose a Local Will Writer in Worksop?

When it comes to writing your will, choosing a local Worksop will writer offers significant advantages over online services or distant companies. At Project Will, we're part of the Bassetlaw community and understand the unique needs of families in Worksop and surrounding areas.

Face-to-face service in the comfort of your home: We come to you, whether you live in Worksop town centre, out in the villages like Carlton-in-Lindrick, or near the beautiful Clumber Park area. There's no need to travel to an office or struggle with complicated online forms. We'll sit down with you in your own home, discuss your wishes, and ensure everything is clear and understood.

Understanding of the local property market: Worksop's property market has its own characteristics, from traditional family homes in Manton and Kilton to newer developments across the town. We understand local property values and can advise on protecting your home from care home fees – a particular concern for many Worksop families given the area's demographics, with over a third of residents in some areas being children who will one day inherit.

Quick response times for local clients: As your local will writer in Worksop, we're just minutes away, not hours. If you need to update your will, have questions, or require urgent assistance, we can usually arrange a same-day or next-day appointment. This is especially important when life changes happen suddenly – a new grandchild, a property purchase, or family circumstances that require immediate attention.

Building a relationship with someone you can trust: Estate planning isn't just about documents – it's about trust. When you work with Project Will, you're not just a case number at a large London-based firm. You'll work with the same dedicated will writer who gets to know you, your family, and your wishes. Many of our Worksop clients return to us for Lasting Powers of Attorney, trust planning, and probate services because they've built that trusted relationship.

Supporting local business in Bassetlaw: When you choose Project Will, you're supporting a local family-run business that serves the Worksop community. We live and work in the area we serve, and we're invested in providing the best possible service to our neighbours in North Nottinghamshire.

Common Will Writing Questions from Worksop Residents

How much does a will cost in Worksop?

At Project Will, our will writing prices are clear and fixed. An individual will starts from £99, while mirror wills for couples start from £149. More complex wills with trusts start from £299. Unlike some solicitors who charge hourly rates, our price includes everything: home visit, consultation, will drafting, guidance, and free storage. There are no hidden fees or surprise bills.

Many Worksop residents are surprised to learn how affordable professional will writing can be. For less than the cost of a family meal out, you can have complete peace of mind that your family is protected.

Do you offer home visits in Worksop?

Absolutely! Home visits are central to our service. We'll come to your home anywhere in Worksop – whether you're in the town centre, out in Carlton-in-Lindrick, near Clumber Park, or in any of the surrounding villages. We also offer evening and weekend appointments to fit around your work and family commitments.

Many of our Worksop clients prefer home visits because they're more convenient, more comfortable, and more private than meeting in an office. You can discuss sensitive family matters in your own home without worrying about who might overhear in a waiting room.

How long does it take to write a will?

The initial consultation typically takes 45-60 minutes. We'll discuss your wishes, your family situation, your assets (property, savings, possessions), who you'd like to inherit, and who should be guardians for any children under 18.

After our meeting, we'll draft your will and send it to you for review within 5-7 working days. Once you're happy with it, we'll arrange a second visit to sign and witness your will – this usually takes about 15-20 minutes. The whole process, from first contact to completed will, typically takes 2-3 weeks.

If you need your will urgently (for example, before medical treatment or travel), we can often expedite the process. Just let us know your situation and we'll do our best to help.

What happens if I die without a will in Worksop?

If you die without a will (called dying "intestate"), the law decides who inherits your estate, not you. The intestacy rules are rigid and often don't reflect what families actually want.

For example:

• If you're unmarried but in a long-term relationship, your partner inherits nothing – even if you've lived together for decades
• If you're married with children, your spouse doesn't automatically inherit everything – your children also get a share, which can force the sale of your home
• Stepchildren don't automatically inherit unless they've been formally adopted
• You have no say over who looks after your children under 18
• Your estate may not be distributed as you'd wish, causing family disputes

For Worksop families, this can be particularly problematic. If you own your home (whether in Manton, Rhodesia, or anywhere else), dying without a will could mean it has to be sold to divide the estate, leaving your family without a home. The only way to ensure your wishes are followed is to write a will.

Can you help with Lasting Powers of Attorney?

Yes, Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) are one of our core services. We help Worksop residents set up both types of LPA:

Property & Financial Affairs LPA: This allows someone you trust (your attorney) to manage your finances if you lose mental capacity. They can pay your bills, access your bank accounts, manage your property, and make financial decisions on your behalf. This LPA can also be used while you still have capacity if you choose (for example, if you're physically unable to get to the bank).

Health & Welfare LPA: This allows your attorney to make decisions about your medical care, where you live, your daily routine, and whether to give or refuse medical treatment. This LPA can only be used once you've lost capacity.

We strongly recommend both types of LPA for all adults over 18. You never know when you might need them – a car accident, a stroke, dementia, or any serious illness could leave you unable to make decisions. Without an LPA, your family would need to apply to the Court of Protection, which costs thousands of pounds and takes months.

Our LPA service includes a home visit, full consultation, completion of all paperwork, and guidance on registering with the Office of the Public Guardian. Single LPAs start from £150, or both LPAs for £250 (plus £82 per LPA registration fee payable to the OPG).

Do you charge for initial consultations?

No, all our initial consultations are completely free and without obligation. We'll come to your home in Worksop, discuss your needs, answer all your questions, and provide a clear, fixed quote. There's no pressure to proceed, and you won't be charged a penny unless you decide to go ahead with our services.

Many Worksop residents appreciate this no-pressure approach. Estate planning is a big decision, and we want you to feel completely comfortable before proceeding.
