Frequently asked questions
How much do will writing solicitors in Bangor charge?
Fees are set by each firm and vary with the work involved. Compare fixed fees side by side on Compare Legal, check what each quote includes, and make sure VAT and disbursements are in the total before you choose.
Can I make a will without a solicitor?
Yes, but a homemade will is easier to get wrong, and it may not be valid if it isn't signed and witnessed properly. In Northern Ireland two witnesses are needed. A fixed-fee will from a solicitor is usually worth it if you own property, have children or a blended family.
What should a quote include?
The firm's own fee, VAT, and disbursements: the costs the firm pays for you, such as searches, registration fees or court fees. Ask whether the fee is fixed and what would make it go up.
