Is an online will a good option for me?

Online wills are typically more convenient than traditional will writing and at a fraction of the cost. They are suitable for most people but you could benefit from speaking with a tax advisor in some situations. For example:

• if you have a large estate (over £1,000,000)
• if you own property abroad
