Wills & Probate
Report
If you die without a Will, the assets that you leave will pass to your next of kin according to rules laid down by law. If you make a Will you can decide who should benefit from your estate, make arrangements for your children, and appoint Executors who will be responsible for making sure that your wishes are carried out.

Making a Will is one of the most important decisions you make in your lifetime. By making a Will you can ensure that your financial affairs can be administered with the minimum amount of distress and anxiety to your loved ones.

We had wills & LPA's done with JWP, Lorna was very helpful professional & knowledgeable, she explained everything in layman's terms and made sure we understood everything, she was also very patient & understanding. Joanna also returned a call when Lorna was unavailable, after I called & she was also professional and helpful. The only reason I have dropped a star is the quality of some of the pages of the photocopied documents, they are very lopsided, and unprofessional for legal copies.

Firstly, thank you Malissa Portlock, and your team, for a great result at Huddersfield family Court. This was a upsetting time, a first for me in this position of being granted a Non Molestation Order due to a relationship breakdown along with Domestic Abuse against myself. Professionally serviced throughout our case, quickly dealt with, very supportive and today I feel a safer place is now in front of me. Guys you have no idea what this means to me moving forward. Thank you very much Darin Torre's

Throughout a very difficult time in my family’s life JWP in particular Lois Monks was an amazing help and went above and beyond to make my life whole again. Would highly recommend, the best representation I could have hoped for. Thank you for everything.

Critical: Value Pray upon your vulnerability then charge you highly for it. 21 pound change out of 500 for a one hour appointment and 2 letters. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid

Never had to use a solicitor before until just recently! Got myself into a spot of bother and didnt know what to do. From start to finish my solicitor looked after me, got me a great result and i just cannot thank this man enough. Brilliant service and so nice and polite. Was just a pleasure meeting him!
