Securing generational inheritance with honesty and clarity

Based in Norfolk, Legacy 1st was founded to bring complete transparency, fair pricing, and straightforward advice to estate planning. Backed by over a decade of experience, we cut through the confusion to protect what matters most to your family.

Why Legacy 1st was founded

After ten years as a legal consultant then director, it became evident that the unregulated estate planning market often prioritises corporate profits over client outcomes. Families are too often sold expensive trusts costing thousands with ongoing fees, only to end up with documents not fit for purpose. Legacy 1st is different. We provide plain-English advice and direct, honest assessments so that modern, blended families avoid sideways inheritance and protect their hard-earned assets.

Transparent pricing without hidden extras

Estate planning shouldn't be clouded by uncertainty or inflated legal charges. Following an initial consultation and thorough review of your circumstances, we provide a guaranteed fixed fee upfront. Our prices are competitive against at least 80% of the market. Crucially, we charge for the solutions we deliver—never for the time we spend talking to you.

Personal experience driving genuine protection

Having navigated the emotional and bureaucratic minefield of health crises, care homes, the NHS, and probate for three parents, we intimately understand how rapidly families can lose control of a loved one's finances and care. Whether protecting vulnerable beneficiaries, shielding children at risk of debt, or ensuring your estate passes directly to chosen heirs, we put proper, legally sound measures in place.

"Legacy 1st gave us honest, clear guidance without baffling jargon or hidden fees. We finally have complete peace of mind knowing our family's inheritance is safe."
