Guardianship clarity
Your will is where you can name a guardian to care for your children if you die while they are under 18 and no other parent with parental responsibility survives you.
Wills for parents
When children depend on you, clear guardian and executor planning in your will becomes even more important.
Practical backup planning
Choose reliable executors and include fallback appointments to reduce disruption later.
Recommended next steps
Your will, printed and posted. Your original, kept safe for life.
We print your will on premium paper and post it to you with clear signing instructions. If you choose our free storage, the pack includes an envelope addressed to Fifty Six Law for the signed original.
Fifty Six Law checks the signed original, binds it and keeps it in safe storage, free for life, with a certificate of safe custody for you. You pay only the postage to send it to us.
Prefer the Probate Service? Deposit your will with HMCTS yourself for £24 using the form we fill in for you, or we check it and send it for £74. You can ask for your original back at any time, and your executors can collect it when it is needed. They are always free to choose who deals with the estate.
