Updating your Will
You can change your Will at any time, assuming you have the capacity to do so. Under our lifetime service, WSL will remind you on a regular basis as to when you need to review your Will, and you will be able to do so free of charge. However, we recommend that you review your Will every five years or after any major life event such as;
- Birth
- Death
- Marriage
- Registered civil partnership
- Divorce
- Separation
- Dissolution of a registered civil partnership
- Moving house
- Change of guardians
- Arrival of children
- Arrival of grandchildren
- Imminent surgery/illness
- Upcoming holiday, especially long haul
How to update your Will if you are a Lifetime Client
- Write your amendments directly onto the copy Wills that we sent you for your records.
- If adding new people, we require full names and relationships, eg ‘John Howard Smith, brother.’ If changing or adding an Executor or Trustee, we require the same, plus their address.
- Sign each page of the copy Wills.
- Include a photocopy of one form of ID for each of you, eg driving licence or passport.
- Send the amended copy Wills and ID to Legal Dept, WSL Ltd, 154 High Street, Brentford, TW8 8JA
- Upon receipt we will update your Wills and send new Wills to you for signing and witnessing.
How to update your Will if you are a non-Lifetime Client
- The charge for updating a single Will is £175, and two ‘mirror’ Wills is £215, including VAT.
- Write your amendments clearly onto photocopies of your Wills. Do not mark your original Wills in any way, as this will invalidate them.
