Professional Wills Scotland is also available for drafting Scottish documents.

Testamentary Trusts are drafted as part of the Will process through Arken’s Will Writing software, however, you can also use Arken Lifetime for preparing Inter Vivos (IV) Trusts. The tax implications of Trusts can be quite complex and ever-changing, so Trust Referencer provides you with regularly updated tax information for all IV and Testamentary Trusts. With downloadable , personalised reports for clients, Trustees or even for your records, you can ensure all tax implications are recorded at the time of drafting and understood by all parties.

Arken Online Wills offers your clients the chance to draft their own straightforward instructions online in their own time, 24 hours a day. You can set whether they finish and download that document, or send it to you, as their trusted advisor, to be checked or even printed and bound. You can brand the solution and set your own payment method too. Use seamlessly with the Intestacy Lead Generator, that can help generate leads for your business or link with Arken’s Digital Fact Find for capturing data on those more complex instructions that need your professional guidance.

The Arken Instruction Hub has unlimited usage and digitises the process of capturing client instructions, quoting, and confirming requirements, all within a secure and branded client portal. It integrates seamlessly with Arken Professional (our industry leading Will writing software) significantly reducing your need to re-key and administrative workload.

Arken Acquire is a digital fact find. Your client can use it to fill in their data and it will automatically populate Arken’s Will Writing software. With many different use cases, you can capture clients’ data, generate more leads and indeed cross-promote your Will writing services to clients from other internal departments like conveyancing or family law. Arken Acquire can sit on your website or you can send a link to your clients. It works on a tablet or phone, so it can even be used in reception areas for clients to complete immediately prior to the interview.

The Arken Intestacy tool will show your potential clients in just one minute what would happen if they died without a Will. Used as a lead generation tool, it provides clients with an on-screen assessment of what would happen if they were to die ‘intestate’. Motivate the 55% of UK adults that don’t have a Will to put this critical document in place by showing the impact of dying without one. Integrate with Arken Online Wills and Arken Acquire to generate new clients, document creation, and ensure clients’ best interests are protected. *Applicable in England & Wales only.
