Question: Drafting a will for a gay couple in the UK (pre Civil Partnerships)

axon — Mon, 29 Nov 2004 02:54:39 -0800

I'm in a long-term, gay relationship and looking to put together a will that puts me and my partner's mind at ease before Civil Partnerships come into affect in the UK. The problem is, how does one go about putting together a will? What are people's experiences? Should I go to a lawyer specialising in gay relationships? And, if so, can anyone recommend a good one in the UK, London area?

It's easy. You do need a solicitor though to take you through the process. We used Andrew Belmont of Belmont Hansford in Vauxhall (no website that I can find) but address details here. He also got a mention in the Guardian and does seem to specialise in this.
