Our free service is designed for straightforward situations. If your affairs are more complicated, getting professional advice from a qualified Scottish solicitor is the safest way to protect your assets and your family.
When do you need a solicitor?
We strongly recommend consulting a solicitor if you answer "yes" to any of the following:
- Do you own a business, a farm, or shares in a private company?
- Do you own property outside the UK?
- Do you want to set up a trust (e.g., to protect assets from care home fees, or to provide for a disabled relative)?
- Is your estate likely to be subject to Inheritance Tax?
- Do you have children from a previous marriage and want to ensure they are protected alongside your current spouse?
- Are you concerned that someone might try to challenge or contest your will after you die?
