HOW YOU GO ABOUT WRITING YOUR WILL.
Send us an email to info@dpc.ie stating that you wish to make a will.
We will send you our comprehensive Will information sheet and questionaire which you can complete and get the process underway.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO INSTRUCT US TO PREPARE AND SIGN YOUR WILL?
Our minimum fee to tank instruction, draft, discuss and execute a will including VAT is €400.00. We will send you a full questionnaire to help you identify the factors you must consider when writing your will. When you send us that information, we will draft your will and sent it to you for review. We will discuss any changes or additions you wish to make at that stage. When you are satisfied with the draft, will we then arrange for signing?
HOW TO SIGN YOUR WILL
The strict rules governing the creation of a will may be relaxed if the circumstances in which the will is made warrant. The current Covid 19 pandemic is a special circumstance. It is also possible to change or add to a will, and this was more common in the past when people wrote wills in longhand or used hand typewriters. The rules for amending or adding to a will repeat the first execution of the will, but with different witnesses. Usually, people make a new will rather than add or amend an older version.
If the Original will is destroyed, there is a presumption that the deceased revoked the will before death. However, it may be possible to prove the copy depending on the circumstances of how the original was destroyed in the first place.
STORING YOUR WILL
When you have written your will with Coyne Solicitors, or even if you are not a client of the office you may store your will in our partner Deeds Storage company.
