Update a Will / Codicils Solicitor in London

Life changes—and your will should keep up. The only way to change a will is by a formal update (often a codicil) or by making a new will that revokes previous wills.

Codicil or new will?

  • Codicil: usually for small, clean changes (must be signed/witnessed like a will).

  • New will: often better for major changes (new relationship, new children, property changes, bigger asset changes).
