Estate Planning Should Make Life Simpler
Less to worry about. Less for the people you love to deal with later.
"Estate planning isn't about what you have got. It's about how easy you make it for the people you love to deal with everything afterwards."
Shaun Hiscox - Founder & Director at Elwyn & Mabel Estate Planning
Only 39% of UK adults have a Will. And of that 39%, most aren’t up to date.
That means most people have no plan in place for the moment they are least able to make one. Some have been putting it off because they don’t know where to start. Some have been told it will be expensive or complicated, or both. Some have been quoted thousands for things they didn’t actually need, and walked away assuming all estate planning works that way.
It doesn’t have to.
This is why we built Elwyn & Mabel.
It shouldn’t cost the earth to plan what happens to your estate after you are no longer here. It also shouldn’t be complicated.
Elwyn & Mabel exists to advise on estate planning in plain English, without legal jargon. Where the only thing we put in place is what you actually need, with you and your families interest at the focus.
