Every Feature, In Detail

A comprehensive breakdown of everything WillWriter offers for creating your UK Will.

10-Stage Guided Wizard

A structured wizard that walks you through every aspect of your Will — personal details, family structure, assets, beneficiaries, executors, guardians, specific gifts, residuary estate, tax planning, and final review. Each stage has contextual help and validation.

12 Validation Rules

Automatic validation checks for legal compliance, beneficiary-witness conflicts, executor eligibility, guardian appointment for minors, residuary estate defaults, conflicting designations, substitutional beneficiaries, executor age/capacity, Scotland-specific requirements, charity registration, trust structure, tax threshold alerts, and signing instruction completeness.

Scotland Detection via Postcode

Enter your postcode and WillWriter instantly determines whether you're in Scotland, applying the correct legal framework. Scottish wills have distinct requirements around witnessing, confirmation, and estate administration — all handled automatically.

14 Conditional Will Clauses

WillWriter builds 14 conditional clauses based on your answers: revocation of prior wills, declaration of intent, executor appointments, substitutional executors, guardian appointment, trust provisions for minors, specific legacies, residuary estate distribution, substitutional beneficiaries, charitable gifts, tax planning provisions, burial wishes, attestation, and Scotland-specific clauses.

Inheritance Tax Warnings

Automatic alerts when your estate approaches or exceeds the £325,000 nil-rate band, £175,000 residence nil-rate band, or the combined £1,000,000 threshold for married couples. Guidance on tax-efficient structuring options is provided.

Professional PDF Generation
