Leading Will Writing Software provider WillSuite are completing research into the impact that Covid is having on the estate planning sector.
"At present we are asking for solicitors and Will Writers working in the sector to complete our survey about the impact that Coronavirus has had on their business. This data will be used in conjunction with data from our system and together we will be able to present these findings to professionals across the sector" - Tom Stansfield (Head of Growth).
One of the reoccurring themes is that industry surveys rarely ever look at a data set of more than a couple of thousand people. WillSuite software produces well over 100,000 documents per year and as such we are able to assess much more data when producing our reports.
The new report that we are creating will take feedback from the system (statistics) but to also include quotes from leading practitioners who are on the front line. Our hope is that this report will help firms to understand more about how they can pivot, adapt and survive.
To complete the survey, all you need to do is go to HERE.
Any quotes that you would like to submit for the report, please email them to Tom Stansfield (tom@willsuite.co.uk)
