Meet Matt Walkden, Founder

Hi, I’m Matt Walkden, the founder of MW Legal Services and a specialist in will writing and estate planning. With over 20 years of experience in the legal sector, I have helped thousands of clients put their affairs in order with expert guidance, practical solutions, and a deep commitment to professionalism.

Before establishing MW Legal Services, I built a career across customer service, project management, and legal services, developing a sharp understanding of what people need when planning for the future. Recognising the demand for a trusted, expert-led alternative to expensive solicitor services, I created a firm dedicated to delivering high-quality, tailored estate planning solutions without unnecessary complexity or cost.

Since launching MW Legal Services, I have worked with over 17,000 clients, ensuring that their wills, powers of attorney, and estate administration are handled with precision, care, and integrity.
