The LegalWills.co.uk estate planning blog moved from legalwills.wordpress.com to its permanent home at legalwills.co.uk/blog. We have operated online Will writing services for UK residents since 2003 while using this blog to share useful information about Wills and estate planning and Powers of Attorney and probate procedures.
Why Did the LegalWills Blog Move?
Our online legal Will service has been operational since 2003 when we began posting estate planning content at legalwills.wordpress.com for more than four years. The collection expanded until it contained more than 100 articles which explained every detail about Will writing and estate planning throughout the United Kingdom.
The blog found its permanent residence at legalwills.co.uk/blog during 2014. Our main website now contains the blog which allows us to unite all estate planning resources and tools and services under one platform which UK residents can access through a single website.
