Now, more than ever, clients need properly qualified will draftsmen to prepare their Wills and associated documents. Family structures have become increasingly complex over the years and private wealth has grown significantly. These factors are beginning to focus the spotlight on the competence of will draftsmen and the threat to the public of poorly drafted Wills. The client, or the client’s family, may not appreciate the risk until it is too late.
 
In 2011, aware of these concerns, the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP)* launched the STEP Advanced Certificate in Will Preparation at the level of the STEP Diploma, the gold standard and a benchmark qualification in the field of trusts and estates education to validate the competence of will draftsmen.
 
For pace of mind please ensure that your will draftsman is properly trained and qualified.
