The honest comparison

Why not just use a free template?

Most free templates fail for one reason: they hand you a blank document and leave you to figure out the rest.

✗They don't guide you through what to include
✗They don't check for mistakes or risky situations
✗They don't tell you how to sign it correctly — the most common reason wills are invalidated
✗They don't flag if your situation needs a solicitor instead
✓ Willow does all four. That's the difference.

⚠️

Willow may not be right for your situation

Based on your answers, your estate may be more complex than Willow is designed for. Using the wrong tool risks creating an invalid will — we'd rather be honest with you now.

⚠️ Based on your answers, your situation may be more complex Willow is designed for straightforward estates only. Continuing may increase the risk that your will does not fully reflect your needs — or could be challenged later.

Your will is ready

Your will has been generated and is ready to download. One step left — and it's the most important one.

What to do next — do not skip this
1
Print your will on white A4 paper. Do not staple.
2
Read every clause to confirm it reflects your wishes.
3
Choose two witnesses — they must NOT be beneficiaries or their spouses.
4
All three of you in the same room. Sign. Both witnesses sign immediately after, while still present.
5
Store the original safely. Tell your executor where it is.
