Deal with a straightforward estate yourself, without guessing

Free checker · £349 one-off for the guided package · Government fees paid directly to HMCTS

Before you spend anything

The free checker looks at three things that decide whether self-help is safe:

  1. 1JurisdictionWas the estate governed by the law of England and Wales?
  2. 2DisputesIs anyone challenging the will, the executor, or the estate?
  3. 3ComplexityTrusts, businesses, overseas assets, insolvency, missing heirs.

Takes about five minutes. No account, no card, no saved data.

What the platform actually does

One question at a time

Every step explains what is being asked and why it matters, with no legal jargon left undefined.

The tax position, worked through

Allowances, transferable bands and exemptions are applied to the figures you enter, so you can see where the estate stands.

Your paperwork, organised

Asset registers, notification letters, executor checklists and estate accounts, all generated from one record.

Told early if it is not for you

The free checker screens for disputes, insolvency, trusts and overseas assets before you spend anything.

Private by design

Estate data is encrypted, access is restricted to your account, and you can export or delete everything.

Honest about the limits

We are not solicitors and we never pretend otherwise. You stay the personal representative throughout.

One price, published, with nothing added later

The suitability checker is free. The guided package is £349, paid once, covering one estate for as long as you need it. There are no hourly rates and no percentage of the estate.

Government fees are separate: the HMCTS application fee is currently £526 for estates above £5,000, paid directly to HMCTS. Last checked 6 August 2026.
