"We'd been putting this off for years. Two kids under five and we kept saying 'next month.' ClearWill took us 25 minutes on a Sunday afternoon. Both wills done, guardians named. I genuinely can't believe we waited so long."

Sarah M. Mother of two · England
★★★★★

"A solicitor quoted me £1,200 for a relatively simple estate. ClearWill did the same job for £99, and the document looks just as professional. The IHT estimator was an eye-opener — turns out we had no liability. Saved us the worry."

David R. Homeowner · Scotland
★★★★★

"The guided questions made everything clear. I didn't need to know what 'residuary estate' meant — it explained it in plain English. Mirror wills for me and my husband in under 30 minutes. Proper job."

Questions

Frequently asked

Everything you need to know about The Estate Shield.

Is a will made with ClearWill legally valid?
A will is legally valid if it complies with the relevant legislation (Wills Act 1837 for England & Wales, Scots law for Scotland). ClearWill generates the document with proper legal structure. You make it legal by signing it correctly in front of two witnesses. We provide full instructions.
What's included in the IHT Liability Analysis?
The Premium Estate Shield includes a detailed calculation of your estate's potential inheritance tax liability, plus three specific mitigation strategies tailored to your situation (e.g., gifting strategies, trust structures, or spousal exemptions). This alone can save tens of thousands of pounds.
Do I need a solicitor?
For straightforward estates, no. The Estate Shield is designed for people with relatively simple wishes — specific gifts, residuary estate, executors, and optionally guardians. If your situation involves trusts, business assets, foreign property, or complex tax planning, we recommend consulting a solicitor.
Can I make mirror wills for me and my partner?
Yes. Mirror wills are matching wills for couples where each person leaves everything to the other, with the same backup beneficiaries. Our Mirror Wills for Couples plan (£179) guides you through ONE flow that generates TWO separate legally-compliant wills—one for each partner. Each person must sign their own will, but the process is streamlined and coordinated.
What jurisdictions do you support?
We support England & Wales (Wills Act 1837), Scotland (Scots law), and Northern Ireland. Each jurisdiction has different legal requirements — our system generates the correct structure for your location.
How does the annual health-check work?
Premium Estate Shield customers receive an annual reminder to review their will. If life circumstances have changed (marriage, children, new assets), you can create a free updated will. This ensures your estate plan stays current without paying solicitor fees every time.
What if I already used the free IHT Estimator?
The free IHT Estimator gives you a ballpark figure. The Premium Estate Shield's IHT Liability Analysis is far more detailed — it includes three tailored mitigation strategies and integrates with your will's structure to optimize tax efficiency.
