Protected Life Planning are simply the best. I had to make another will after my wife died and they could not have been more helpful and understanding. I also had to arrange another Lasting Power of Attorney and, with all the paperwork for both being managed by them, they made the stressful tasks seem easy. Wendy visited us at home and spent several hours explaining everything in detail and she guided us on completing the documents. Couldn’t have asked for more, and can highly recommend them.

Great service

I found the company on line and Peter visited us at home. He made the whole thing easy to understand and Wendy has been very supportive over the phone. I feel relieved that we’ve set up the whole package so everything is taken care of.

Outstanding 5-Star Service

After a disappointing experience with Pembroke Wills in Gillingham, where I encountered unfriendliness, it was a breath of fresh air to speak with Wendy at Protected Life Planning. From our very first interaction, Wendy demonstrated exceptional warmth, professionalism, and genuine care.

The service I received was truly 5-star from start to finish. Wendy went above and beyond by arranging a convenient home visit, ensuring every detail was thoroughly covered—including important points I hadn’t even considered. This level of expertise highlights the importance of working with a Will Writer who is a member of The Society of Will Writers, providing reassurance and peace of mind. It’s worth noting that many Will Writers are not members, so it’s crucial not to take unnecessary risks.

Wendy, who is also a Director at Protected Life Planning, personally arranged for my Will to be signed, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her and the team. Their dedication ensures complete peace of mind.

I was very impressed with the service provided by Peter and Wendy over the phone. The process was made very easy for writing my will, my son’s will and the power of attorney application. I had put off doing these things owing to the expense but was greatly relieved to find the cost completely manageable by using this firm. Many thanks indeed.

Wendy did a Home visit and explained everything well. She gave us advice on various options which We hadn't considered.
Jane lost Her Dad during the process and a few mistakes were on our behalf. Wendy was very understanding, patient and helpful. Would highly recommend Her and Her Team.

Excellent service from Protected Life Planning

Excellent service from Wendy. I had my Will made after my husband passed and nothing was too much trouble. I had a home visit to go through what my wishes were. Wendy always gave me advice on other things I hadn't thought of (free or charge). The draft and completed Will were completed within two weeks. Very competitive fee for the service. Highly recommend Wendy and her team to anyone.

excellent & efficient service, Protected Life Planning

My Mum used Protected Life Planning to write her Will. Sadly my mum passed away in Sept 2021 and I used Protected Life Planning to complete the paperwork for Probate for both the DWP and probate courts. Thanks to the excellent service they provided Probate was granted in less than 6 months (during the current Covid period) and with no inheritance tax. They also provided some really good advice about the process and managing the estate as a whole and was always available on the phone, weekends as well. Thank you so much Mandy and Wendy for an excellent & efficient service.

Additional support network at a difficult time

After my partner lost both of his parents within 6 months, Wendy and Mandy were an amazing support. Not only explaining each step of the journey but also assisting with the tracking down of policies and arranging the probate / Inheritance tax forms. Without them, especially Mandy, we would have been lost.. can't recommend them highly enough.

Last Will and Testaments

We have just completed making our (mirror) Wills and we are so glad we used this Firm. I have used them before when my Brother passed away and as far as I'm concerned Wendy and her colleagues are, simply, outstanding. Thank you people!!

PLP recommended!

I was recommended Wendy for some advice regarding a really unfortunate situation with my aunt & uncle. She was fantastic from the start and extremely helpful. I have since used her and Mandy to help sort out a number of issues for both my aunt and myself & they have made the whole process as straightforward & simple as possible. I have no hesitation in recommending them at all. Thank you both very much for all your help.

Exceptional Service

We first used PLP last year for a Will writing and cannot thank Wendy enough for all the help, advice and support she provided. Her friendly, approachable manner put us at ease and she made the whole process stress-free. More recently we used their Probate service and received excellent help from Mandy who guided us through the probate process with patience and diligence. We were delighted with the services Wendy and Mandy provided and would have no hesitation in using PLP again. Thank you. Claire and Steve

Made the process very easy, and saved a fortune!

During traumatic and upsetting times, the last thing you want to do is think too much about what needs to be done, when and how. Wendy helped me to make the entire process easy, and saved a fortune on having a probate solicitor do what in the end, was very easy.

Thank you so much Wendy.

Excellent service

I used Protected life planning’s Probate service & would highly recommend. Both Wendy and Mandy took all the stress and worry out of the whole process at what was an already very difficult time. Both were very friendly, professional and explained the whole process every step of the way. I have already recommended their service and would do so again.
Many Thanks
