Your Will lets you decide what happens to your money, property and possessions after your death. If you make a will you can also make sure you do not pay more Inheritance Tax than you need to.

While there are many options available for writing your Will our legal experts provide peace of mind that your Will has been professionally drafted and is legally binding.  

DIY Wills do not offer much guidance or flexibility and it can be easy to make mistakes that have serious consequences for your loved ones.

Will trusts can be tailored to meet the particular needs of you and your estate. Some uses might include:

• Provide income or property for your second spouse during their lifetime, ensuring the assets then pass to the children from your first marriage after their death
• Fund education for your children and grandchildren
• Provide for vulnerable loved ones

Please do get in touch if you would like to discuss this in more detail. 

There are two types of Powers Of Attorney (LPAs), Financial and Property and Health and Welfare.

An LPA is a legal document that grants someone else the authority to act on your behalf in certain legal and financial matters. 

A Financial and Property LPA can include managing your finances, paying bills, and dealing with your House.  

A Health and Welfare LPA can include making medical decisions if you are unable to do so, ensuring that your are following your preferred diet and your living arrangements. 

By setting up LPAs you can ensure that your affairs are managed according to your wishes even if you are unable to manage them yourself.

Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA) allow people to choose someone they trust to make decisions on their behalf if something happens and they are unable to make decisions for themselves.  If you do not have LPAs set up when you need them, your loved ones will need to make an application to the court to for a deputyship, this can be expensive and time consuming.

An LPA can only be set up while you are of sound mind and must be registered before it can be used.  Accidents and illnesses can happen at any age, so it is better to think about getting them set up sooner rather than later.
