About Us
At Brampton Wills and Estate Planning, we’re committed to delivering exceptional estate planning services with confidentiality, compassion and integrity at the heart of everything we do. Our goal is simple – to help you feel fully secure and understood at every stage of the process, whether we’re meeting face-to-face in the comfort of your home or speaking via Zoom.
We take an ethical, human-first approach – grounded in respect, transparency, and a genuine dedication to protecting your wishes and securing your legacy. As proud members of the Society of Will Writers, we follow their strict Code of Conduct and uphold the highest professional standards in our work. And for extra peace of mind, our service is backed by £2.5 million of professional indemnity insurance.
How we work with you
Whether it’s a phone call or an in-person visit to your home, we make sure every conversation happens in a setting that feels safe and comfortable. Because estate planning is deeply personal, we believe it’s best handled face-to-face – with empathy, clarity, and no pressure.
Once we’ve had our initial meeting and gathered everything we need, we aim to produce a draft of your documents within one week. You’ll then have the chance to review, approve or request any changes. After that, we offer an attestation service – we’ll come to you and make sure your documents are signed and witnessed correctly, giving you peace of mind that everything is legally compliant.
Our focus is on making you feel comfortable and giving you the correct information to make decisions that are best for you.
Our Vision
To foster a calm, supportive environment where sensitive conversations around estate planning feel natural and stress-free.
Our Mission
To provide a service that educates and empowers clients, especially when estate planning feels confusing or overwhelming.
Our Process
Our process is simple, personal, and built around you. We take the time to understand your situation, explain everything in plain English, and guide you step-by-step to ensure your wishes are protected and your loved ones are looked after.
“I started Brampton Wills and Estate Planning with a simple mission – to make estate planning feel personal, not transactional. Too often, these conversations are rushed or overly formal. I believe in slowing things down, listening properly and making sure every client feels seen, heard, and supported. For me, it’s not just about paperwork – it’s about protecting families and giving people peace of mind.”
The implications of NOT having an up-to-date Will
The truth is, without an up-to-date Will, you leave the most important decisions in the hands of strangers. A Will gives you control, clarity, and peace of mind – and it protects the people you care about most.
At Brampton Wills and Estate Planning, we’re here to help you understand every aspect of protecting your estate and making sure your wishes are carried out exactly as intended. We take pride in offering a calm, professional, and compassionate service – because we know just how sensitive these conversations can be.
- INTESTATE RULES APPLY
Without a valid Will your estate is divided according to strict intestacy laws – not your personal wishes. This often means your assets go to blood relatives in a set legal order, which may not reflect your relationships or intentions. This can lead to confusion, disappointment and even bitter disputes among family members, particularly in blended families or where long-term partners are not legally recognised.
- UNCERTAINTY IN GUARDIANSHIP
If you have young children and haven’t named guardians in your Will, the court will decide who takes on that responsibility. Their decision may not reflect your values or wishes — and it can add unnecessary stress to an already emotional time. Naming guardians in advance gives your children stability and helps your loved ones feel confident in carrying out your wishes.
3. FINANCIAL AND LEGAL CONSEQUENCES
Dying without a Will often means a longer, more complicated probate process. This can lead to higher legal fees, avoidable delays in distributing assets and extra costs for your family. Without clear instructions, your estate may require court intervention – draining both time and money and adding unnecessary frustration for your beneficiaries.
4. EXCLUSION OF LOVED ONES
People you care about deeply – such as stepchildren, unmarried partners, close friends, or carers – may be left with nothing if they’re not named in a valid Will. The law doesn’t assume emotional closeness. It simply follows the default line of succession. That means some of your most meaningful relationships could be overlooked entirely and your estate could end up in the hands of distant relatives or, in rare cases, even the Crown.
