Trusted name vs lowest price
Co-op Legal Services is a well-known, solicitor-backed provider — reassuring if you want a person on the phone and don't mind paying more.

How much cheaper is ClearLegacy than Co-op?
Considerably, for a standard will. ClearLegacy is £69 single / £99 mirror. Co-op Legal Services starts from £150 for a single will and £245 for mirror wills (inc VAT). For a straightforward will the legal result is the same; you're paying Co-op for solicitor involvement.
Is Co-op better because it uses solicitors?
Solicitor involvement is valuable for complex estates or if you want personal advice. For a straightforward will, a correctly made online will is equally valid. Choose Co-op if you want that reassurance and will pay for it; choose ClearLegacy for speed and price.
Can ClearLegacy handle a trust will?
ClearLegacy is built for straightforward wills. If you need a trust will, we'll flag that your situation needs specialist advice before you start — in which case a solicitor-backed service like Co-op, or a private-client solicitor, is the right route.
