The move to increased professionalism and eventual regulation leaves the Estate Planning industry in an exciting state of flux and gives potential new entrants like you a fantastic opportunity to succeed. Research indicates that over two thirds of existing practitioners are looking to exit the industry because of the higher standards that will be demanded, yet the size of the market and the needs of the public remain undiminished.

That’s a lot of prospects. On average, a client will spend £400 on getting their Will drafted and you’ll mostly meet couples.
If you can find just two couples a week, you could earn £83,200 per year, and that’s only two couples a week.
But the business is not just advising and writing Wills. As a Will and Probate Services Franchisee you can offer a comprehensive range of additional
services that many other sectors can’t.
