Making a will

Post by Postiebear »

Would I be right in saying we get a free will service with royal mail or the union, seem to remember this from a while back?

There's no "free will" within Royal Mail, you do as you're told! :wink:
Does this rag smell of chloroform to you?

CWU's Legal Services Department offers a FREE will-writing service for members and their partners.
You can take advantage of this service by telephoning us on 0208 971 7444 or via email freewills@cwu.org
We will send a free will pack to the member explaining all they need to know and it includes a questionnaire for them to complete and send to our Panel Solicitors. Our Solicitors will then draft a standard will for the member (and partner if they wish) based on the information contained in the questionnaire.
It may be that the member requires something more complex than a standard will. For example, they may need inheritance tax advice or perhaps they own a property abroad. If that is so, then our Solicitors will contact them to discuss their needs. Non-standard wills may incur a charge although this would be agreed with the member in advance with the solicitor and will be at a discounted rate obtained by the CWU.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share
