My cousin used to work for Longmores, but has since emigrated to warmer climes, he always said they were very professional to work for, so can only hope they are the same with their clients?

...and having received a quote for them to do work for us I feel they are quite costly; and having the buyer of our flat use them for conveyancing I feel that we will never use them personally!

From personal experience I can highly recommend Longmores. I have just created my first will and found them most professional as well as helpful and friendly.

I have to say that Longmores have always been very good in my experince, they have done our wills and lots of other work and not had a problem. Sometimes a bit slow but I think that is a trait of all solicitors!

I use Jameson & Hill on Fore Street. I have always found them ok and not too expensive, although admittedly I have little to compare them with as I've never used any other solicitor! They certainly were friendly and kept things simple though.

You could try an online will service - just type something like 'make a will' into google and links to several sites offering such a service appear. Can't vouch for them, but doubtless they will be cheaper and probably quicker than a solicitor.

I don't know but as a single person I paid £75 for mine.

Whilst in WH Smith on Saturday, i did notice a DIY Will Kit. A relative bargain at £14.99.
