You have given out too much Reputation in the last 24 hours, try again later.

Tut tut. You repped me on the 21st. It's a three day cycle
and as you're a sockie who reps his full rep every day that was you.

Come on. Who are you?

Really - I could have sworn I repped you yesterday but you are probably right

Come on. Who are you?

I've told you a few times.

The main reasons to use a solicitor are to ensure it's worded in such a way that cannot be disputed legally, and to have it properly witnessed.

No, that's not the main reason at all.

The main reason is get peace of mind - often wrongly.

I think you're wrong. To be valid, a will must be witnessed by someone who is not a beneficiary. Many people have trouble finding someone who fits the bill that they are willing to share the contents of their will with, so they go to a solicitor.

From Wikipedia:

A common error (for example) in the execution of home-made wills in England is to use a beneficiary (typically a spouse or other close family members) as a witness – although this has the effect in law of disinheriting the witness regardless of the provisions of the will.

Anyway, to the OP, instead of listening to the likes of AtW I suggest you have a look at this very useful webpage:
