It’s difficult to
contemplate a time in later life when we may not
be able to administer our own affairs. It’s
more difficult still to make plans for what should
happen after we have passed on. By making
provision for these unfortunate eventualities in
advance and getting in touch with our team of wills
and probate solicitors, you can protect against
any unnecessary emotional strain for yourself and
those close to you. Planning ahead will give you
peace of mind that your finances are taken care
of, if and when the time comes.
We
have an experienced and sympathetic team of wills
and probate solicitors who specialise in dealing
sensitively with the legal issues surrounding old
age and death. We make the procedures as simple
and user-friendly as possible to avoid any unecessary
burden during times of distress.
Please
get in
touch with our
team of wills and probate solicitors if you’d like

will
preparation Without a will you have little
control over the
distribution of your estate or the welfare of your
children should you pass away. Our wills and
probate solicitors can help you ensure that
provision is made to protect against finances or
child welfare rights being claimed by ex-spouses
or estranged relatives.
inheritance tax planning If you neglect to make
legal provision to protect
your family’s future inheritance they could be
liable to pay a massive 40% in tax after you
have passed on. A quick and easy procedure
can mitigate against this situation and allow
your family to maximise their entitlement.
general
powers of attorney
Should you become infirm or incapacitated
there may be legal confusion surrounding who
is entitled to administer your affairs whilst you
are indisposed. A brief consultation with our
specialists will clarify the issues surrounding
your situation and give you the confidence that
your wishes are being respected.

for long-term care
If you need residential care over a long period
of time, your home or your family’s inheritance
could be seized as a means of footing the bill.
