Wills

Making a Will is the best way to ensure that the people whom you want to inherit will do so.
Many people assume that their estate will automatically pass in full to their spouse or
civil partner but this may not be the case. Without a Will, the law decides who inherits and this
may not be in accordance with your wishes. For example, if you are not married or in a civil
partnership then without a Will your surviving partner will not automatically inherit any part
of your estate.

We deal with all aspects of Wills including inheritance tax planning and care fee planning
and are able to provide an efficient and cost effective service.

We also take a proactive approach to lifetime tax planning through the use of trusts often
providing advice in close association with other professional advisors.

Lasting Powers of Attorney

If you become unable to deal with any of your finances and paperwork at some point in the 
future then your Attorneys will have the power to do so under a power of attorney.
If you do not have a Lasting Power of Attorney and become incapable of dealing with your
finances then this can lead to very expensive and lengthy applications to the Court.
You can also decide to delegate decisions about health and welfare matters to your
Attorneys if you become unable to make such decisions yourself in future.
