With artificial intelligence (AI) now part of everyday life, many people are beginning to see it as a tool for creating Wills. Studies show a growing number believe AI can replace professional advice in this sensitive area.
Solicitors in Bangor have raised concerns about people bypassing legal expertise. They continue to urge the public to seek proper guidance from qualified professionals when making a Will.
Around half of people in the United Kingdom believe using AI for Will writing is acceptable. Encouragingly, most of those surveyed still felt a human should check the document. This highlights an important truth, which is that people recognise the value of professional oversight, even if they are tempted by cheaper alternatives.
The main reason people turn to AI is cost. Many respondents believed that using solicitors in North Wales for Will writing was too expensive – yet the risks of avoiding legal advice far outweigh the short-term savings. A Will must be legally sound, and the consequences of errors or oversights often only emerge after the testator has died, leaving families to deal with costly disputes.
Legal specialists warn that AI cannot capture the nuances or personal details needed for an effective Will. Every individual has unique circumstances, and an automated tool cannot provide the tailored advice required to protect a person’s estate and their loved ones.
