ScottishWill prepares Wills using wording suitable for Scots law. Every Will is reviewed before delivery, and you’ll receive clear instructions on how to sign and witness it correctly to make it legally valid in Scotland.
ScottishWill is designed for straightforward estates and uses a guided online process rather than in-person appointments. This allows us to offer a clear, upfront price without compromising on clarity or review before delivery.
The system is designed to guide you and prevent common mistakes. You’ll review everything before it’s finalised, and if you need to update your will later, we offer simple low-cost edits — no stress, no starting from scratch.
You’re not on your own. Our intelligent Co‑Pilot guides you through the process with simple, conversational questions. It helps you think clearly about your decisions — without the legal jargon. While it can’t offer legal advice, it ensures you never feel lost. And if you need help, real human support is just a message away.
We walk you through exactly how to choose guardians and set out your wishes clearly. This is one of the most important reasons to write a will — and we make sure it’s handled properly.
Yes — everything is encrypted and stored securely. Your personal data is never sold, and your will is delivered directly to you as a private document — not shared with anyone else.
Once you complete your will, you’ll get clear signing instructions. In Scotland, it becomes legal once signed in front of one adult witness (two if you’re in England/Wales). We explain the steps so nothing is missed.
Charity Wills can be a good option for some people. ScottishWill is designed for those who want a straightforward, independent Will with no obligations, completed on their own timeline.
Yes — we’re here for you. Friendly, human help is available if you get stuck or need clarification. You’re never alone, even if you’re doing this online.
