Making a will is vitally important, yet for understandable reasons many people avoid doing so. Research consistently shows that 60% of adults don’t have a will in place – an extraordinary 31 million people.
That’s why Resolver has teamed up with Which? Wills, part of the Which? Group, and their simple and cost-effective service to help people find the will that works for them.
Resolver’s users receive 25% off – part of our range of services to help people save money and beat the cost-of-living crisis.
Just by answering a few simple questions, Which? Wills can help people begin the process of creating a will, while finding the service that works specifically for their needs, cheaply and effectively. Self Service wills start from just £74.25, or a full review is available from those who need more support.

One of the main reasons cited by people for not making wills is the perception of prohibitively high costs. Which? Wills simplifies the process of making a legally binding will without the need for solicitors costs – and there is a team on hand to help people through the process.
Why make a will?
Some of the most difficult and entrenched complaints that Resolver sees involve the estates of people who had died without writing a will. In the absence of any definitive guidance about what the deceased wanted, it can be extremely difficult and distressing for people trying to sort out the estate of a loved one.
- If there’s no will, then the rules of intestacy apply, which set out who inherits what. These may not reflect what the deceased may have wanted, and can lead to disputes among the people who inherit over what happens to the estate.
- If you’re unmarried, you need a will if you want your partner to inherit some or all of your estate – including civil partnerships that haven’t been registered. Wills are also vital for clarifying vital decisions, like childcare for those aged under 18.
- There are some tax advantages to estate planning through your will. Even if you don’t have savings and investments, if you own your property, you can make inheritance tax provisions in your will for your children.
