Why Instruct English Wills?
English Wills has become a market-leading niche legal services business, providing a professional and convenient wills, probate and estate planning service. Our uncompromising commitment to value, efficiency and excellence of service quality has been key to our continued success.
A surprising number of English individuals still do not have wills or perhaps even more worryingly, have wills which are either invalid or no longer correctly reflect their intentions.
The primary objective of our service is to provide peace of mind to our clients and their families that their affairs may be expertly, reliably and efficiently dealt with, in accordance with their wishes, following a bereavement.
Our Spanish wills practice has developed in acting for many individuals who either did not previously have wills of their Spanish assets or in some cases, had previously made both Spanish and their own national law wills drafted in isolation, which invalidated each other and which were therefore discovered to be ineffective. For detailed information regarding our Spanish will solutions and services, please visit our Spanish wills website: www.wills4spain.com
Also for the benefit of our clients with assets in Spain, we have an established expertise and a full panel of professional associations, to be able to represent our clients and replace their sense of fear and mystery with clarity as to what happens to Spanish assets in the event of a bereavement.

Who Are We?
Our Managing Director is Andrew Eastwood, LL.B (Hons).
Andrew has comprehensive experience as a professional legal practitioner, with his background as a partner in one of the largest and most highly respected firms of English Solicitors.
As well as being able to draw on his considerable experience from his years in practice as an English Solicitor, Andrew has also spent a number of years living and working in the professional service industry in Spain. This has given him the requisite involvement in legal practice in Spain and familiarity with the Spanish business culture generally.
Andrew is an active Fellow Member of the Society of Will Writers and Estate Planning Practitioners (the principal regulatory body of Will Writing and Estate Planning Professionals in the UK).
As a founding Director of English Wills, Andrew has now moved completely across from general UK legal practice to focus solely on his management role. He also remains on the Roll of English Solicitors and is privileged to continue as a Member of the Law Society of England and Wales (the regulatory body for the profession of English Solicitors), as a non-practising English Solicitor of the Supreme Court.
At English Wills, we have a full understanding of clients’ needs whether they remain British resident, with or without overseas assets, and also for the specific needs of our extensive ex-pat client base.
At English Wills, we are committed to providing a personal service, tailored to individual client needs. All our documentation is produced by individuals with the requisite training, experience and qualification, necessary to guarantee the highest quality of service and product.
We also only work in conjunction with other professional firms which share our commitment to high quality client service.
