Q-Foundations
Q-Foundations - Complete Life and Estate Planning
Sorting your Will and Lasting Powers of Attorney shouldn’t feel overwhelming. It should feel clear, calm, and properly cared for. That’s why we created Q-Foundations — a complete life and estate planning package that brings everything together for you, in one simple fixed fee. No jargon, no stress, no surprises.
What You Get
Your Will
Every Will we prepare is drafted and personally reviewed by an experienced Advocate, ensuring it reflects your wishes with absolute clarity and legal certainty. We help you appoint Executors you know and trust, and where children are involved, we guide you through choosing appropriate guardians to provide long-term security and peace of mind.
Where your circumstances require it, we incorporate straightforward trusts to protect assets and support vulnerable beneficiaries. You will also have the option to include a personalised Letter of Wishes, offering gentle guidance to your Executors on matters that sit outside the formal legal provisions.
As part of our service, we provide clear advice on any potential risks, claims, or vulnerabilities, helping you understand how to best protect your estate. When it comes to signing, we support you through the process to ensure your Will is properly executed and legally valid.
And, because life can change quickly, you will benefit from complimentary updates for 12 months, giving you the freedom to make amendments without additional cost.
Both Lasting Powers of Attorney
Putting Lasting Powers of Attorney in place ensures that, if you ever become unable to make decisions for yourself, the people you trust most are legally empowered to act on your behalf. These documents provide clarity, control, and reassurance for you and your loved ones at a time when it matters most.
Financial Decisions (Enduring Power of Attorney)
This allows your chosen Attorneys to manage your financial affairs—such as banking, property, and day-to-day money matters—ensuring everything continues smoothly should you be unable to handle these responsibilities yourself.
Health & Care Decisions
This authorises your Attorneys to make important decisions about your health, care, and personal welfare. From medical treatment to living arrangements, it guarantees that your wishes are respected by those providing your care.
Together, these documents offer a vital layer of protection, ensuring your affairs are handled with dignity, clarity, and complete legal authority when you need it most.
The Quinns Vault and Secure Storage
To provide complete peace of mind after your documents are signed, we offer secure storage and easy, on-demand access for a full 12 months. Your original Will is kept in our protected physical storage facility, ensuring it remains safe, intact, and readily available when required.
Alongside this, you will have round-the-clock access to your personal Digital Vault, allowing you to view your documents securely, whenever and wherever you need them. If you choose, trusted Executors can also be given controlled access, ensuring they have the information they need at the right time—no delays, no uncertainty.
As part of this service, we include an annual review together with any minor updates that may be needed, helping you keep your arrangements current and aligned with any changes in your circumstances.
Everything stored safely. Everything accessible when needed. Everything handled with care.

Pricing - Clear. Fair. Fixed.
If Your Estate Is More Complex
Most people fit comfortably within the standard Q-Foundations package. However, if your estate involves more detailed planning — we will identify this during your initial meeting. Should bespoke work be required, we will explain exactly why, outline the additional steps involved, and provide a clear, tailored fixed-fee quote before anything proceeds. Examples of more complex situations include:
- Blended Families
- High-Value or Business Estates
- Overseas Property
- Discretionary or life-interest Trusts
- Vulnerable Beneficiaries
- Complex Ownership Structures
