Town & Country Wills

Professional Will Writing & Estate Planning

Making a Will or planning a legacy is an important step to take, yet around 70% of the population currently do not have one.

Founded by local Principal Richard Hopkins, Town & Country Wills was established to ensure local residents can access top-tier legal protection without the expensive and time-consuming trip to a high-street solicitor.

Richard is a qualified Willwriter with 15 years of legal experience and a further 22 years in the property and financial services industries. To give clients complete peace of mind, the practice holds £2 Million in Professional Indemnity Insurance. Most appointments are managed via convenient, pre-arranged, two-stage face-to-face home visits, though alternative consultations via Zoom or Teams are readily available if preferred.

Our Services

Town & Country Wills offers extensive expertise and fixed-cost packages across a range of vital estate planning legal services:

Will Writing & Legacy Planning:

Last Will & Testament: Ensure your possessions are distributed according to your wishes, appoint guardians for children under 18, and streamline the probate process.
Unmarried Partner Protection: Secure your partner's future, as unmarried partners are not automatically entitled to inherit under intestacy laws without a valid Will.
Inheritance Tax Trusts: Carefully prepared and drafted trusts designed to minimise potential inheritance tax liabilities.

Asset Protection & Care:

Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA): Appoint someone you trust with the legal authority to handle your Property & Financial affairs or Health & Welfare decisions should you lose capacity.
Property Protection Trusts (PPTs): Safeguard a share of your home for your chosen beneficiaries against potential risks like residential care home fees.
Family Asset Protection: Set up a "lifetime trust" to pass property securely to children while continuing to enjoy the benefits of ownership.

Probate Services:

Specialist Referrals: While probate administration is a reserved legal activity, Town & Country Wills provides access to fixed-fee pricing through a trusted panel of regulated solicitors.
