Platform
Yes, WillsConnect wills are completely legally valid in England and Wales when properly signed and witnessed.
Every will created through WillsConnect:
- Meets all legal requirements for England and Wales

To ensure your will is valid, you must:
- Print the final will
- Sign it in front of two independent witnesses (both present together)
- Have both witnesses sign while you and each other are present
