Portswood Estate Planning

Serving Freemantle, Highfield, Swaythling, St Denys, Bevois Valley

Affordable Estate Planning in Portswood

Portswood is included in the estate planning area served by New Forest Wills in central Southampton. The suburb features Victorian terraces near the High Street, family homes around St Denys, and student housing close to the university campus.

New Forest Wills provides home visits throughout Portswood. Each consultation results in a legally valid will or lasting power of attorney, based on the client’s personal instructions for property, care arrangements and guardianship.

Portswood residents use estate planning to ensure decisions remain under their control. In a neighbourhood with mixed property use, shared living and intergenerational occupancy, written plans reduce conflict and remove reliance on default legal rules.

New Forest Wills arranges appointments across Portswood. Whether preparing a care plan near Belmont Road or recording inheritance instructions close to Thomas Lewis Way, each estate plan supports legal clarity and personal intent.

My mother is a resident at Sway Place Care Home and she needed to update her Will. Having read the excellent reviews on-line, we chose to use the services of New Forest Wills, which also had the added convenience of being local. Russell visited my mother at the Care Home and she immediately felt at ease with him. He took the time to explain the procedure clearly and documented my mother's wishes in what was a straightforward process. We received the Will back from Legal & Contract Services Ltd without any changes necessary and both he and his wife kindly witnessed her signing it at the Care Home. New Forest Wills certainly justifies our 5 star review for Russell's personable and professional service and value for money and we would thoroughly recommend it.

My husband & I used New Forest Wills to update our wills last year, something we had kept putting off because we didn’t have the time, but It was so simple, Russ came to our home, he was friendly & professional providing an excellent service at a great price.I was so impressed that I persuaded my 85 yr old mum to use Russ to get her Lasting power of attorney done, she didn’t want a strange man going to her home but as soon as Russ had left, she phoned me to tell me what a lovely man he was and how he explained everything to her & it was cheaper than she expected, this is high praise indeed.I highly recommend Russ at NF Wills

I had not made any provision for writing a will, so I was very pleased to have a visit from Russell who spent time considering the best option for my requirements. The process was very carefully thought through and professional, and I now feel a great deal of relief that my will is now in place. I would highly recommend New Forest Wills to anyone looking for a reliable and cost-effective service.
