We had a will review with Gary Lewis last week and what a refreshing experience. He was knowledgeable, efficient, calm and quite humorous at times. If any one is looking for a new will or to amend there's in any way we would highly recommend Pattison James Associates and their team of will writers. It turned what could of been a daunting experience into a very pleasurable experience.

Brilliant experience of writing our first Wills. My partner and I bought the mirrored Will package which was fantastic value. We had our Will appointment with Gary who was very helpful and friendly explaining everything to us clearly. We will definitely go back to him to re-write our Wills in the future and will be recommending him to friends and family.

Amelia

Friendly, Professional and Expert Service that you can afford!
My husband and I needed to get a Will as we both own property and had nothing in place; we are getting on a bit and this was quite a concern.
I responded to an offer from Pattison James for an inexpensive Will Service and a telephone appointment was booked with Gary Lewis.
Gary called on time and explained every step in detail, in a way that was easy to understand. He took our personal circumstances into consideration and gave us excellent individual advice. We have managed to avoid certain pitfalls that we would have fallen into, had we not consulted him. We felt completely comfortable discussing our personal issues with him and he was totally professional, extremely knowledgeable and highly adaptable to our particular requests. The process went very smoothly. We ended up with a different kind of Will than we had expected, but without his expertise, we would have encountered several problems that would have affected us and our children negatively, down the line, so we are both relieved to have spoken to somebody that so clearly knows what he is doing.
We were surprised by how inexpensive the service is, and we have also taken the opportunity to have our Wills professionally stored, which includes any other important documents that need to go with it, such as Share Certificates, house deeds, etc, all for the same nominal fee.
I have had experience of Probate Solicitors before, and there is just no comparison; Pattison James are a different animal entirely; there to assist the Client at the most competitive rates available, they can offer recommendations to other services as well, all at the most reasonable rates.
Finding a good solicitor is a minefield, and we feel we have struck gold with Gary; he definitely went above and beyond to advise us, and was endlessly patient with my many questions. We also received paperwork via email to back this up, so we have something to refer to and to show our children if need be.
I cannot recommend Gary personally, nor Pattison James as a company, highly enough. I will be doing just that to all my friends and family with the confidence that they will get the same premium levels of service that we have gotten ourselves.
We are very happy customers indeed.
Btw, distance is NO problem, all documents can be posted, we will be issued with contact cards to give to our children, so that when the time comes, they can easily access all documents via post as well, and any assistance that they require to help them at a difficult time.
One of the best decisions we've made in recent years.

Daniella McCarthy-Stewart

Informative, helpful and well explained. It's how presentations should be made.

Jamie Heywood

Go for it !
I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Gary for will writing services. He was friendly and professional explaining everything clearly. A job well done !

Lesley Pearce

Great peace of mind
Needed to write a new will after a change of family circumstances and Gary couldn't have been more helpful. He explained how a trust could ensure that funds left to my dependents would be protected after my death. LPA's were mentioned and discussed, so I was fully informed of what was available.
No hard sell for any of their services.
Very happy with the final will decisions.
Keeping my will with PJA means I can make amendments whenever I want, with no extra charges.
Would definitely recommend their services - especially Gary. Thank you.

Sarah Lou

Gary was friendly and professional. He explained everything simply and didn't try a hard sell with the other services. I am happy to recommend his services to anyone looking to make a will especially if they are uncertain about ways to provide and protect their assets for their loved ones.

As a solicitor myself it seemed odd to use a Will company but they are experts in their field and the deal was outstanding. We had a really good call with Gary from PJA who was extremely friendly, very knowledgable, totally relaxed and not a single mistake was made. He went through everything and we also decided to add trusts to our Wills which was half of the price I had been quoted before.

Wills came with great instructions, all very clear.

Would highly recommend Gary. Excellent

Clear, concise and timely. Gary came recommended by a friend and I am already recommending him to others. He took the time to explain everything to us and we weren't rushed. He answered all of our questions and was not pushy in terms of other services (although did tell us what was available should be want it). We didn't have to wait too long for an appointment and our draft wills have been received quickly.

I have been using this service for sometime and needed support to update my will and to establish a discretionary trust. I have received incredible support from Gary Lewis on both occasions. I find him working with client's best interest at heart. He comes with very detailed knowledge of this area, offers sincere advice and leaves the decision to the client without adding any unnecessary pressure from business point of view. I like this approach as it helps me to make my own decision and to own it. Higly recommended service!

Gary, from Pattison James, was very knowledgable and helpful when reviewing my uncle's will. Gary made the process stress free and my uncle and I enjoyed chatting to him. Many thanks 🌻

Teresa Slaughter

Most of us out there are not financially literate. Even fewer of us are literate to deal with estate planning, inheritance tax, setting up trusts, executors, trustees, beneficiaries, and guardians. I have been searching an honest succinct guidance to answer the above questions. Then I came across "The Meaningful Money Handbook" by Pete Matthew. I will recommend this book as it will help you understand your risks and the options to deal with them apart from other wealth of information to manage your finances. I was listening to audible version of the book and at one point the author said emphasizing the importance of Will that "stop listening here and go find a professional to write your Will if you have not got one". It is super super super important one needs to have Will irrespective of age or you are leaving your loved ones to the will of Tax man! Imagine your property is jointly owned and either one of you pass away, Tax man will come and claim tax of the partner passing away. As most of us don't have cash, so you will lose home straightaway. Impact is not only restricted to your home but then imagine one who passed away looks back and thinks what I could have done for my partner, kids and close relatives that would have made positive contribution to their lives, what I could have done to pass on my assets in a tax efficient way? In my mind, Will writing and Estate Planning can be one of the factor that can make rich people poor overnight. Answer to all these questions is Pattison James Associates Ltd. I have been with them now for couple of years. I had my Will and POA written by them and changed a few times (it is covered under fixed sum per year for storage and changes). Not a single time, I realised a drop in level of service. I met earlier this week with Gary Lewis for annual Will Review who thoroughly (1 hour 40 minutes) reviewed everything was in order, explained again various trusts and their significance and got my Will in order for me. I believe what they are charging for their services is nothing. If you can take away one best advice for you and your family this year, get your Will in place and grab Pattison James with both arms. Gary Lewis was so patient and knowledgeable - highly recommended if you can get hold of him. Please note that my above review is unbiased and I am not getting anything in return for writing this review. I believe one should appreciate good services and efforts of individuals so that others can benefit from it. Best of luck!!!

Muhammad Rehan Gul

Gary explained things well.

M Grimwood

Shela

Shela Hirani

Have had my will with Pattison James Associates Ltd for several years,when offered a consultation I thought is was an excellent idea because things had changed in my life & I wanted more security for my children. I had my consultation with Gary Lewis, he not only made sense of all the legal jargon that you don't quite understand, but also pointed out other things I could do to ensure my children's future inheritance was safe and assured. Every step of the way Gary would give me the options of things I could do and the prices for them. Thank you very much Gary for making a thing you don't really want to talk about easy to do so.

Happy existing customer

Well explained, easy terminology and no pressure. Gary spent significant time going through what we needed and also touched on other relevant issues we needed to consider eg life insurance , how the title deeds of our house are registered. He was always on hand to answer queries as they popped up. Very impressed.

Maria Martin

Excellent service with Gary Lewis today everything I want with his help and guidance. Very patient and understanding. He made some suggestions for things that could have potentially been problems for my children so now it's all sorted properly.

It's my 2nd will made with pattison James associates so highly recommend,5 star service

Karen

I had found that the Will writing service went very well, it is a difficult subject, where there could be room for disaster but I found that Gary had provided highly effiecient and clause proof information to protect against any such mishap, the telephone call and pre booking reminder email and text made me feel a little bit more prepared, to have my documents and information ready, and all went very well. I feel assured that my Will can be traced and all is as I wish for my loved ones. A terrific service.

The cost of making a Will is far cheaper than the ultimate cost of not making a Will!

You can enjoy our Professional Will Writing Service at an affordable price

£85 for a single Will
£145 for mirror Wills (Wills for couples - only £72.50 per Will)

During your Will writing appointment, Gary will:

  • Explain how a Will works
  • Understand what assets you own
  • Advise you on where you stand in relation to Inheritance Tax
  • Discuss guardianship if you have children under 18
  • Get a detailed understanding of your wishes and then advise on the most appropriate way to achieve these, highlighting any shortfalls where applicable
  • Complete your Will instructions ready for drafting
  • Explain the signing process

You may know how you would like your Will to be structured and who will perform the various roles such as Executors, Guardians and everyone's favourite - Beneficiaries! Or you might not have a clue!

Either way, you will see that we are experts in explaining the various elements and roles within a Will that are pertinent to you, taking into account all the relevant laws & taxation that apply for your particular circumstance without explaining all the laws etc that just don't apply to you.

The upshot will be that at the end of your appointment, we will have all of the information we need to begin drafting your Will, ready for signing.

Generally, our clients know all the answers to the questions we ask during their appointment but occasionally there are one or two outstanding items such as the address of an executor for example which you can forward on to your consultant after the meeting.

Your Will writing appointment would typically last around an hour though we don't like to rush our clients and so we always allow 2 hours in case you have lots of questions that you would like answered.

If you don't have a valid Will that represents your wishes and you are over 18, there is really no reason to delay making a Will any longer - just click through to our online booking system now to schedule your appointment and purchase your service and then leave the rest to us.
