A recession-proof industry…
According to the Ministry of Justice, Will Writing is an ESSENTIAL service.
Will writing is a recession-proof industry in which it is surprisingly easy to develop a business that brings in six figures every year whilst also providing a vital service.
If you have a will, your money and assets will benefit the ones you love after your death. Nearly 66% of UK adults do not have a will!
We can say with some confidence that there will always be people in the UK who need wills, so your market of potential customers will never be saturated.
Since we offer personal help and guidance, writing a will is rarely the end of our business relationships with clients.
Because we are friendly and professional and provide our clients with useful information, we frequently identify other services they need.
Those additional services include trusts, probate, LPAs, and funeral plans. When you help provide these extras, directly or indirectly, you can boost your income by up to 40%.
It is no exaggeration to say that being a Maplebrook Wills® franchisee provides you with the opportunity to generate a six-figure business.

Training & Support
“The benefits of being part of Maplebrook Wills® is the intimacy of the business as a family. I know that I have the Daily Surgery support hour on ZOOM, and if I get stuck, I can get almost instant response from the ZEN Desk technical feed.
This means I have a business mentor, and I have a legal mentor, and that allows me to have the confidence that if I can't answer a client question immediately, that I have backup in the office to go and inquire and get the correct answers at the right time for my clients.
The other bonus is that now I don’t need to do office admin - it’s all taken care of by the EDGE!” – Barb L
