Really pleased I found MWQ planning
Really pleased I found MWQ planning. Myself and partner got our wills done at a much cheaper price than the solicitors quoted. Darren went through everything throughly and the wills were drafted very promptly. All subsequent questions were dealt with very quickly. Thank you

Paid in full for three services; a year on, two remain undelivered — and they called it “complete.”
I would urge potential clients to think very carefully before instructing MWQ Estate Planning.
In 2025 my wife and I paid £2,795 in full for a “Full Protection Package” of three services: a Lasting Power of Attorney, an Asset Protection Trust Plus Deed, and Legal Mirror Wills. Over a year later, only the LPOA has been delivered. The Trust and the Wills remain outstanding to this day.
Most concerning of all, MWQ issued us a “Completion of Service” letter stating the work was finished, when in fact two of the three contracted services had never been carried out. I leave others to draw their own conclusions about that.
Throughout, communication was extremely poor. Over twelve months I chased repeatedly by phone, email and text. Promised call-backs did not happen, and clear timelines were never given. When I finally submitted a formal complaint, my email was ignored entirely, and the only response to my follow-up letter was a one-line reply passing the matter to the very person the complaint was about.
We have since escalated the matter to the relevant regulatory and consumer bodies. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend this firm.

Darren was up front and v professional
Darren was up front about the costs and the process. (A lot of this industry appears to be geared towards vagueness and pressure selling). He was true to his word - the call was professional. I was guided through the process and the whole thing was sorted out in no time at all. There's a bit of admin to get the docs properly filed...but I was super happy to have found this company and this individual to support me with this.
