Congratulations to our Wills and Probate Team have been shortlisted for Will Writing Team of the Year at the Probate Industry Awards 2026.

We are delighted to announce that the Switalskis Wills and Probate team has been shortlisted for Will Writing Team of the Year at the Probate Industry Awards 2026.

This national recognition reflects our commitment to delivering legally robust, tailored and compassionate will writing services, supporting individuals and families to protect what matters most.

Recognising Excellence in the Probate Industry

The Probate Industry Awards celebrate excellence across the probate sector, recognising outstanding professionals, firms and innovations that make a meaningful difference to clients.

The Will Writing Team of the Year category acknowledges the significant role that reputable and reliable will writing solicitors play in helping individuals protect their assets and loved ones through proper estate planning. A will is one of the most important legal documents a person will ever make. It must be comprehensive, legally sound and carefully tailored to individual circumstances.

Being shortlisted is a proud moment as it recognises our technical expertise, client-centred approach and our ongoing investment in innovation and professional development.

Some of the reasons our team have been shortlisted include:

Expert will writing services

Our wills team consistently delivers comprehensive and legally sound wills tailored to each client’s needs. They advise on:

• Straightforward wills
• Complex estate planning
• Discretionary trusts
• Vulnerable person’s trusts
• Inheritance tax and care fee planning
• Second marriages and blended families
• Business and high net worth estates

Acting swiftly in urgent situations

We understand that will writing can sometimes be time critical. When needed our team are able to draft and finalise a thorough will to meet the needs of the individual and their beneficiaries within a short period of time. In one particular case our will adviser met with the client, drafted the will and had it witnessed in less than a day. It gave our client the confidence their affairs were in order and that their family member would be able to stay living in the family home when they passed.

Innovative will writing services

Our shortlist recognition also reflects our commitment to constantly improving our will writing offering including planning for digital assets. Modern estate planning must consider digital wealth. We advise clients on how to deal with:

• Cryptocurrencies
• Social media accounts
• Online banking
• Digital subscriptions

Jargon-free legal advice

We’re committed to making complex areas such as wills, trusts, LPAs and probate accessible. With our wills we offer clients FAQs, booklets and helpful guides for themselves and their loved ones, so they fully understand their options before making important decisions.

Giving back to the community

Our commitment extends beyond legal work.

Each year, our team undertakes over 100 hours of pro bono will writing for hospices making sure those who most need wills have access to legal advice. We actively support community initiatives, including events during Dying Matters Week and fundraising activities.

A commitment to exceptional client service

Our 4.83-star Trustpilot rating is well above the industry average of 2.8 stars and reflects our dedication to client care. Clients regularly highlight our empathy, clarity and professionalism.

 Importantly, almost two-thirds of our clients return to us or recommend us to their families. Many families return to us for probate, Lasting Powers of Attorney and further will writing services after experiencing the quality of our support.
