We started trading in 2018 and have established our company as one of the leading online Will writing services, trusted by hundreds of charities and thousands of consumers.

Will For Good is the only online Will writing service to include legal advice (and not only a limited check or review) and the only service to promote independent legal firms to provide that advice.

Our founder, Jon Brewer was a Solicitor with Pinsent Masons and CMS Cameron McKenna. After an MBA at Imperial College Business School, he became Product Development Director at LexisNexis.

There he developed the Lexis Legal Intelligence suite of online products for solicitors. That product suite includes LexisPSL, which Jon built from scratch, and which is now relied on as an authoritative source of practical legal guidance by thousands of law firms.

After selling his first online legal business to a private equity-backed legal group, Jon started Bequeathed with his business partner, Pier Thomas. Pier is an experienced chartered accountant and FD and runs finance and operations.

Our in-house legal team’s role is to support Will makers through the process, including identifying when they will benefit from advice from a panel legal firm, and to prepare the client file.

The team is staffed with law graduates. The team and legal processes are supervised by Sindy Allen, a solicitor with 16 years PQE. She is a member of Solicitors for the Elderly.

Our charity team is full of fundraising experience. It exists to support charities with their legacy fundraising initiatives and to make the most of their investment in the campaign to make a Will For Good.

The team is led by Emma Rylance who has over 20 years’ experience with charities such as British Red Cross, The Salvation Army and Cancer Research UK.
