I wanted the peace of mind of knowing that my will had been taken care of and I turned to Brian on the strength of feedback from his previous clients and for the convenience that Brian was able and prepared to travel to meet at a place and time that suited me. Brian made me aware of all of the options available and was able to clearly explain what can be a complicated subject in a way that even I could understand. Brian was also able to offer practical advice and assistance with the secure storage of my will document for which I was particularly grateful having not even previously considered that. Based on my experience I would not hesitate to recommend Brian to anyone looking to create or update their will.

Brian recently helped us register LPA. He arranged to meet us at my mum's care home (at no additional cost) and guided us through the process clearly and professionally. We have no hesitation in recommending him and will definitely be using his services again in the future.

I recently used the services of BMS Legal and I am more than happy at the help I received, Brian Slater visited me at my home to both draw up and returned for my signature (both of these visits at no extra charge). He is both friendly and helpful and extremely patient with me as sometimes I need things to be repeated. I am very happy to recommend BMS Legal and will no doubt use them myself in the future.

Brian came to the house at our request to advise us on drawing up our wills, power of attorney and tenants in common. Brian explained everything very clearly and professionally. The above requests were carried out quickly and efficiently even though we had a few changes made. Nothing was too much trouble.My husband and I would certainly recommend his service .

Business information

Welcome to BMS Legal Services

Will and Estate planning service with Free HOME visits

A friendly, ethical, local Will writing and estate planning business. I do standard and complex wills to suit your circumstances.

At BMS I make it simple for you to put your affairs in order. From your initial appointment I take care of everything and make sure that you fully understand the process from start to finish.

My many satisfied clients come from a complete cross section of the population from young families to the elderly. I always do my best to empathise with your own unique circumstances, to deliver a bespoke service.

Specialist areas covered include:-

  • Care home fee mitigation
  • Inheritance tax mitigation
  • Will trusts
  • Lasting Powers of Attorney
  • Probate

I cover a wide area including :- Bury, Bolton, Blackburn, Burnley, Oldham, Rochdale, Preston, Rawtenstall, Central Manchester, South Manchester, and all surrounding areas of Lancashire and Greater Manchester.

In order to save you money, and therefore to be able to offer you competitive prices, I work from home and don't own an expensive office or fancy web site that gives you a load of information that you don't need!!

Instead I travel to your home at a time to suit you and a simple phone call or email is usually enough to give you any specific information that you may feel that you need prior to my visit.

Morning/Afternoon and Evening appointments are available.

Qualified as a member of the Institute of Professional Willwriters to take your will instructions.

Choosing the right person to do this important work for you can be a bit of a lottery so my advice to you is to read my customer reviews for an independant assessment of the quality of my work. I cannot add my own reviews to this web site only my customers can do this.

Please note that after receiving 44 reviews on this site I have now stopped asking my Clients to leave reviews for me.

The reason for this is that according to My Local Services 84% of people trust online reviews, but 90% of consumers read less than 10 reviews before forming an opinion.

So don't worry that my last review was some time ago, I am still in business and waiting your call.

Should you want to see more recent reviews go to Yell.com and imput BMS Legal Services and Bury Lancashire and you will see more 5* reviews. You will also notice the 15 years + sign on the advert which independantly confirms that I have been advertising with Yell for every year over the last 10 years.

If you would like more information on how my services could work for you or would like to make a booking then please ring me on :-

My father-in-law was recently hospitalised and decided he wanted to make a will. He is an advocate of keeping things in the community and wanted a local business to draft this request. I phoned a number of companies on a Saturday morning. Brian Slater contacted me back the same day and met with my father-in-law on the Sunday! He was extremely professional in his manner, knowledgeable of the process and answered all questions in a way that instilled confidence. Everything was written, proof read and signed within 10 days. An excellent service that I would heartily recommend.

Now we have a baby to consider we thought we should write a will ;just in case. I got quotes from several will writing serivces and the BMS rate (Brian Slater) was very competitve. There was also the added advantage of a home visit at a time to suit us. Brian was extremely knowledgeable but there was no hard sell. His emails gave us the opportunity to consider all of our options fully so we were prepared for the meeting and we didnt have to make any on the spot decisions. Very professional.

Unfortunately, an elderly relative of mine required to complete his will in a hurry. He had learned that he had terminal cancer and had only a few weeks to live. He wanted to write a will to ensure his last wishes were fulfilled. Brian was very professional and helpful. His home visit was carried out with sensitivity and he explained the options available. He then guided my relative through the will and ensured that it it matched his requirements. Brian has a friendly yet professional approach, it puts clients at ease and at the same time is reassuringly professional. Brian does not try to sell additional products but does have a number of useful contacts if required. I would recommend Brian unreservedly to anyone who wants to ensure their last wishes are met. This experience has taught the family of the importance of having a will in place and having that peace of mind at a time when you want to spend your time just &being there and not frantically running around.

Brian managed to combine being friendly and Profesional so that I felt at ease at all times and that I had the knowledge that I needed to make the best decision for myself.
This started with the very useful information I received prior to his visit and continued as he discussed the various options with me in the comfort of my own home.
What I feared would be a very daunting and expensive experiance turned out to be quite the opposite.
