2026 Price List (from 1st January 2026)

At Greendrift Wills & Estates we believe in transparent and fair prices. The price agreed with you in writing at the outset is what you will pay unless your requirements change.

WILLS

What are ‘Mirror’ Wills?
The reduced fee quoted for a pair of ‘Mirror’ Wills applies when the two Wills are substantially the same as each other but if they are not, the fee charged will be that for two single Wills.

Standard Wills (most Wills which we draft fit this category)
Single Standard Will – £260                                      Pair of Standard Mirror Wills – £390

Complex (Substantial) Wills (your estate will include either; more than one property, significant complexity, foreign land or buildings, seven or more beneficiaries, significant business ownership, or total assets in excess of £1.5m)
Single Complex Will – £380                                        Pair of Complex Mirror Wills – £590

Simple Wills (If you are not a home owner, have five or fewer beneficiaries, and your estate is worth less than £50k, this can be a very cost effective option)
Single Simple Will – £150                                            Pair of Simple Mirror Wills – £240

 

TRUST WILLS
These are Wills which are drafted to include one or more of the following Will Trusts:

  • PPT –  Property Protection (Life Interest) Trust
  • VPT –  Vulnerable / Disabled Person’s Trust
  • DT   –   Discretionary Trust
  • FLIT –  Flexible Life Interest Trust

Single Trust Will – £450                                                                     Pair of Trust Wills – £690
(If more than one of the above Trusts is required an additional £100 will be charged per Trust)

 

LASTING POWERS OF ATTORNEY (LPAs)
One LPA –  £230
Two LPA’s –  £350
All Four LPA’s for a Couple – £600

Please note that there is also a Government Registration Fee which is payable to the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) at £92 per LPA unless you qualify for either a 50% reduction (if your total annual income is less than £12,000) or a complete exemption (if you are in receipt of certain benefits such as Housing Benefit).

Checking and registering an existing LPA   – £75
Preparing an LPA Deed of Revocation  – £75

GENERAL POWERS OF ATTORNEY (GPAs)
(this can be useful as a ‘stop-gap’ whilst an LPA is awaiting registration by the Office of the Public Guardian, or for one-off decisions. However, unlike an LPA, the  GPA cannot be used after the donor has lost mental capacity)
Single GPA – £100                                        Pair of GPAs for a couple – £150

 

 

DEPUTYSHIP ORDERS
We can prepare and submit applications to the Court of Protection for Property & Financial Affairs Deputyship Orders (we do not currently support applications for Personal Welfare Deputyship Orders, which are only rarely granted by the Court anyway)

Total Greendrift Wills Fee – £850 
(payable in two instalments; £500 when the application is submitted to the Court of Protection, and the balance of £350 when the Deputyship Order is granted. In addition to which there are various 3rd party fees)

We will support you step-by-step in making your Deputyship application. Starting with an initial discussion in your own home about the various fees and additional costs, complexities, timescales and ongoing responsibilities.  We will also offer advice on obtaining the required mental capacity assessment, and will remain actively supporting your case all the way through to your Deputyship Order being granted and responsibility for ongoing monitoring is passed over to the Office of the Public Guardian.

Court applications usually take six months or more but we will do all we can to help make the process as smooth as possible, to keep you updated throughout, and to respond quickly and effectively to any queries you have along the way.
